What impressed you positively?

The campus is really awesome. The children's hospital is absolutely spectacular, the hospital tour was given by the volunteer services chief who dressed as one of the three little pigs (Halloween Day). She along with everyone at EVMS were so genuinely friendly and down to earth.

What impressed you negatively?

Like the previous poster, I noticed the "Baltimoreans." Although I am from Baltimore myself, I did wish that the others "baltimoreans" could have held their condescending thoughts to themselves. It definitely would have made the day a lot more pleasant for the rest of us.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The day was unseasonably warm.

What are your general comments?

This school offered the most in depth look at their school, starting with the demonstration of the standardized patient assesment. We were even allowed in the anatomy lab, my first time seeing cadavers!! The hospital tour was amazing, the students are so down to earth and friendly. The atmosphere is really comfortable and welcoming.
