How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, book: "how to prepare for medical school"

What impressed you positively?

Loved the small atmosphere of the school. The fact that they have a PBL. How friendly the staff was and organized the day was. The clinical education office (for years 3 and 4) are REALLY good. They work very hard to get you where you want. They're very flexible.

What impressed you negatively?

You get very little clinical experience your first two years in the Lecture based learning pash.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The lack of clinical experience you receive in your first two years. THE PRICE!!! OUCH!! 37K for tuition only for an out of state student.

What are your general comments?

A Great school and a great curriculum! A little too far away from everything else, but if you don't mind doing lots of traveling to get anywhere. Far, any questions PM me: jonb12997.
