What impressed you positively?
It was amazing. Everyone was so happy and the students all got along, it wasn't a cutthroat atmosphere. The curriculum is great and clerkships start in second year which is awesome. They did a really good job of making us feel like we were choosing them rather than them choosing us. Also, there was a faculty interview and a student interview and both count equally which I thought was great.
