Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

They did a really good job "selling" the school to us. The facilities were awesome - brand new. The board scores are really high above average and residency placement is very good. Their hospital affiliations are awesome too.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The area lacked much to desire. It's not too bad though. Also, they say they take around 12 weeks to get back with a decision, usually.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

It's a catholic school, although that doesn't mean anything really. I was just surprised to learn that.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

This was a really relaxing interview. I had 2 MD interviewers while everyone else had 1. This worked well because the second interviewer was much more receptive than the first and he also told me that I was lucky to have the first interviewer. It made me feel a lot better. The school loves to boast about their new facilities, and they do rightfully so. Everything about this school was really nice. It was a pleasant surprise. I was already interested in this school but now I am even more so.
