What impressed you positively?

the admissions staff and students are very nice...didn't get a chance to interact much with faculty, but our student tour guides said they're willing to help as much as possible. don't be fooled by the exterior...the inside of the buildings are very nice. the chance that you can do your third/fourth year rotations at over 70 different sites.
