How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

I read over my application and research. I also met with my pre-med advisor who gave me a list of common questions to look over.

What impressed you positively?

The students are really happy to be there and they have a positive relationship with their professors and each other. Also the teaching facilities and Shands are awesome.

What impressed you negatively?

On our tour, they took us in this dirty room called the rec room and the student giving the tour said not to hang out in there because there were probably creatures in the couches. They shouldn't show people that room.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really because I stayed with a med student the night before. I really recommend staying with a student because I was less nervous and I was able to learn a lot more about the school.

What are your general comments?

I had a really good time learning about the COM and they made me feel good about being there.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
