What impressed you positively?

A lot: weather is amazing, the campus is really nice, the OMM/anatomy labs are very high-tech, their new simulation center is very impressive, I like how they set up their classes (lectures with case-based learning in smaller sections), the students are very friendly and willing to help people, off-campus housing nearby sounds amazing

What impressed you negatively?

They are changing the way rotations are decided. This year, when you receive your acceptance letter you also receive the site that you are assigned to for 3rd year rotations, which I think is odd because 1) it's 1st year and 2) I'm not sure how much of a say we get in our rotation site decision.

What are your general comments?

Great school! Moved right up there to the top of my list :)
