What impressed you positively?

everything. great standardized patient program (best in the country, a huge asset for the future board changes).

no true cafeteria

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

the interview isn't as stressful as i had thought it would be. the interview was more conversational and just a get-to-know-you type meeting.

What are your general comments?

The school is now my top choice and i really wish i was a state resident. everything from the standardized patient program to the very cool, relaxed, and friendly student body, the school seems to promote a "work hard, play hard" mentality. the area of norfolk is nice and i would love to be here next year.
