Overall, I was really impressed by the school. Esp. the emphasis on their student. I liked the block curriculum, the grading system, the continuous improvement on their usmle scores, extra usmle classes given by the school, the cheap cost of living.

What impressed you negatively?

Toledo seems like a dead city. The weather is pretty horrible. Sometimes student have classes from 8 to 5.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Toledo sucks.

What are your general comments?

What really got me was the night and day difference between both of my interviewers. My first interview was completely laid back...lasted about 30 mins. My second interview was the toughest interview I ever had. It lasted almost 2 hours!! I got grilled on every aspect of our current healthcare system and universal healthcare. Even though I thought that I was decently knowledgeable about this topic, I felt totally overwhelmed.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
