What are your general comments?

This school is awesome. It has a major clinical empahsis and I love that. they have a great clinic and really turn you into a competant clnician when you graduate. The faculty members are great and the school has a good curr. The students there who just took the NB part one averaged 89.1 which places them sixth in the nation...so the curriculum works well. The students love the school and the city. Boston is awesome and would be so much fun to live in. This was also the most professional interview set-up I've seen. Mark gives the best presentation of a school i've ever seen. They said that they interview 25% of the applicants and then they accept 75% of the interviewees.
