What impressed you positively?

The technology at the school is great, way beyond the other schools I have been to. The Program for Integrated Learning looks very interesting. The school is located in the suburbs of Philadelphia, where living is much more affordable than in the city.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The students in the two separate curriculums have little to know interaction with each other. Many of the students said that they didn't know a single person in the other curriculum.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That my interview would be at a hospital in center city Philadelphia, ten miles away from the school. That the medical school is not actually anywhere near the Drexel Campus, which is in downtown Philadelphia.

What are your general comments?

The interviewees met in a room in the admissions office and were given a presentation by one of the admissions staff about the history of the school, the curricula, and financial aid. We were then given a tour of the school. After the tour we had our faculty interviews. I had to ride a shuttle to the hospital in Philadelphia, where I met my interviewer. The interview was very relaxed and conversational. After the faculty interview, I went back to the main campus and had lunch and my interview with a student. This interview was really laidback, she didn't even really ask me any questions, we just kind of talked about the school and what it's like to live in Philadelphia. Finally, we had an information session to tell us a little bit more about the PIL program.
