What impressed you positively?

the "old red" is a BEAUTIFUL building in the middle of campus. it was the first building of this med school, which is the oldest med school in TX... so pretty old. but very pretty!

What impressed you negatively?

the area. The island is pretty much dead, with nothing much to do, and the beaches were ugly. and OMG! the mosquitos were crazy when I was there! b/c it's by the gulf...I got like 30 bites!! yuck!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I should have worn OFF!!! Mosquitos!

What are your general comments?

It was a good experience, except for the 30 bug bites i got! although both my interviewers ended up talking way more than I did, so I felt like it was almost a waste of my plane ticket and time for me to even be sitting there. But they were fairly nice, so that was good.
