What are your general comments?
It's a solid school for those of you interested in primary care. I am not sure how great they are at placing students in semi-competitive residencies though. Additionally, I wasn't impressed with my first interviewer. It seemed like I talking to a wall. She wasn't receptive to any of my responses. Not only was she almost 30 minutes late, she answered her cell phone during the interview.

my advisor, AMCAS, SDN
What impressed you positively?
The school is connected to the hospital. You don't have to walk outside. The library is new.
What impressed you negatively?
The hospital didn't seem very busy. The precent of students place in their top two residency choices during matching doesn't seem to be great great either. It seems to be very primary care oriented.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
I wish I brought a warmer jacket. It's cold there.
