What impressed you positively?
The school is the ONLY one to start clinicals in the second year...right at the beginning. You'll be coming out of this school truly prepared and ready to treat patients and work in a hospital setting as well. Facilities are great.... and of course, LOCATION!!! SF Bay Area is the ultimate cultural experience and is a wonderful place to go to school. BART and MUNI can get you all over the city cheap! At least go check it out if you get an interview!
What impressed you negatively?
Nothing....
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
get the chicken burrito during lunch... NOT a spicy chicken burrito! You'll interview immediately afterward with the former dean!
What are your general comments?
