What impressed you positively?

I like Valhalla. It's very Pretty. I like the opportunity to do both rural and urban clerkships without compromise.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

I met a few students who seemed a little ignorant. As a minority student, I was a little offended. A student's dorm room door had some very sexist material posted all over it. Another student seemed subtly racist. 4th year student said he felt limited in terms of instruction in reproductive & womens health.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That NYMC doesn't have such a focus on primary care. I really want to be a primary care clinician. I actually felt like the orientation was trying to talk me out of this.

What are your general comments?

Believe it or not, I think this school is really where I want to go. There were a few scary students, but the majority were great; they overwhelmed the negativity. Most of the students seemed very close; roomates were close friends. The faculty I met were so pleasant, accepting, and intellectually stimulating. Overall, I think NYMC is on the right track. They just need to be more selective in thier admissions. Maybe recruit more minority students and expand their offerings in Women's health.
