How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed materials they sent to me, reviewed SDN comments, stayed up on news and current events

What impressed you positively?

How friendly and helpful everyone was. It was truly amazing. Also, their view of how to restructure clinical practices and management to improve patient care.

What impressed you negatively?

The medical school is new and beautiful and they have a new cancer center, but the rest of the medical center is pretty ugly...lots of parking lots and buildings with retro-60's looks, like concrete blocks.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That my visit was timed over one of their breaks...would have liked to be there for a class or to talk to more students. Some students were there, though.

What are your general comments?

I didn't know much about Loyola coming in, but I have to say I was really impressed. The students I did speak with were very happy there and the faculty interviewers were so casual and personable that they didn't feel like interviews. One of my interviews went on for an hour and a half! They really seem student-oriented there and very responsive to their concerns and interests. Some of the things they've done with restructuring patient care procedures and interaction between doctors, residents and medical students (creating formats where the interaction is less hierarchical) is really interesting. I really liked it.
