Relaxed!

What impressed you positively?

Not a whole lot.

What impressed you negatively?

The facilities were pretty grim. Unless of course you're the type that loves cinder blocks and flourescent lighting. The student giving our tour constantly kept apologizing for "how ugly everything was." Also, my faculty interviewer was a JERK. The first thing he said was, "So, it looks like you don't know what you want to do with your life."

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That my faculty interviewer was a 75 year old redneck from rural Colorado ... that way I could have tried to speak more plainly and "good ole' boy."

What are your general comments?

Generally an unimpressive interview. Everybody in my group was a Colorado resident and all the students kept extolling how great the price was. True, but look what you get. If education is all you care about from a medical school (a valid attitude but not mine), UCHSC would be great. There are no recreation facilities at all, no gym, break room or anything. And why retired faculty do the interviews is mystery to me!
