How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN interview feedback, reviewed my application, and relaxed.

What impressed you positively?

The faculty are very accessible to students. Students are friendly and appear to help each other out. New facilities are impressive and clinical training is personal.

What impressed you negatively?

Lubbock. Inevitably having to move (if you're not married/have small kids/are a local) for the clinical years.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I could have flown out at five PM instead of seven PM b/c interviews were finished at three PM for everyone.

What are your general comments?

Texas Tech is a great school and is getting better. However, the regional campuses are a big drawback if you don't want to move. Despite the hassle of moving, Tech's clinical years seem to prepare their students well for residency.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
