What impressed you positively?
Students start having contact with patients from day one. Additionally, all the students I met were happy to be at USF.
What impressed you negatively?
The tour was a bit thrown together. Originally, it was supposed to have been a tour of Moffitt, but that was canceled. We were given a tour of the Moffitt researh center instead. However, this ended up being very interesting.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
Thankfully, there were no big surprises. The visit is very relaxed and I would recommend attending the pre-interview dinner or staying with a host. It was a great way to get to know students and other interviewees.
What are your general comments?
Overall, I had a great experience. I interviewed with one faculty member and one student. However, it is a bit of a long day so make sure to bring water and eat.
