Read app, this site, nothing more

What impressed you positively?

Nice anatomy lab. Students are smart but still outgoing down to earth. Some people complain about the campus being away from the city, however half the students do rotations in Manhattan for third and fourth years. Board exam scores and options for clinical work.

What impressed you negatively?

kinda need a car for first two years (although you could feasibly survive without one)

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing, I knew alot about this school from a friend

What are your general comments?

Started off with usual presentations in beginning: intro and financial aid stuff. Interview was with a pediatrician. I was not grilled or put under excessive pressure. The first part of the interview focused on my experiences and stuff (closed file), second part was ethical questions and stuff. I finished off with a discussion about advances in patient care. Overall a fun experience.
