What impressed you positively?

The clinical/volunteer experience seems top-notch. There is a free clinic apparently run almost entirely by students, as well as volunteer opportunities everywhere you look. There seems to be a focus on clinical education and taking the initiative to study various interests.

What impressed you negatively?

In the center city where my hotel was, parking was expensive. There is a lot of talk about the bad neighborhood that Temple is in, but the immediate area is nicer than I expected.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The Penna. Turnpike exits are not the same as what mapquest.com will have you believe. The Philadephia city area is not as bad a neighborhood as I had heard.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

Very low stress interview, tour with 2 second year students (who were among the most friendly I have met at interviews), financial aid presentation and admissions presentation. finished with lunch. Temple was a pleasant surprise. Although much is made of the bad neighborhood, probationary status, and poor financial aid, I thought that those things were blown out of proportion.
