What impressed you positively?

The students who gave us the tour couldn't say enough about the excellence of the clinical rotations. Lots hands on experience. LCP program is interesting. There are so many hospitals within two blocks of the school. The MED is one of the best trauma centers in the country.

What impressed you negatively?

The map they send you is outdated, first two years seem very boring, traditional lectures. The whole things wraps up at 1:30, which sucks if you have a late interview.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

LCP program.

What are your general comments?

Overall it was good. Nelson Strother and Dianne are so nice. I felt completely at ease after talking to them. My first interviewer seemed argumentative. I felt like he didn't like me, but I was in there for about an hour and twenty minutes. I was told by students that it was a good thing to go over the alotted 50 minutes. The second interview went smoother, but the questions were much tougher. Lots of situational questions with ethical issues embedded in them. This seemed to be a tougher interview that most people get in terms of questions asked. The other interviewees got easier questions. I felt pretty confident after the second interview. I kinda like interviews though.
