What impressed you positively?
The faculty and staff were extremely generous and nice. The school's facility is pretty new. Tour was very extensive - got to see the labs, the classrooms, the practice patient rooms, etc.
What impressed you negatively?
They should have students from different years at their student panel. We only had 2 P1 students who barely started at school so they didn't know how to answer some of the questions.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Bring a pencil and eraser. Wear comfortable shoes.

I really liked the school and the staff. The interview was not as nerve-racking as I thought it would be. They had a really good schedule this time and there was not much down time, or probably I was just talking to my new friends the whole time :).

None. I actually loved their admission's office. Very efficient with email reply time and very friendly both in person and on the phone
