What impressed you positively?

St. Louis is a nice town...if you like that small town feel.

What impressed you negatively?

The facilities were awful...and I had heard that before, but man. WOW. The carpets were stained, the walls were dirty and dented in, and the whole med school building felt like a dungeon to me. Our tour guide was terrible. He didn't smile once, couldn't say anything exciting about SLU, and told us the only reason he's going there is because it's the only place he was accepted.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I'm not sure this is the school for me, although I liked their philosophy and focus on ethical concerns.

What are your general comments?

The interview itself wasn't bad at all...just a few provocative questions. Lunch was average. The student hosting program was kindof a pain in the ass...you have to pay $25 just to stay with them, and then you have to pay anywhere from $40 to $60 in cab fare to get to their remote locations. Not good. I could've stayed in a hotel closer to the school for cheaper!!!
