What impressed you positively?

This is a very high quality program, with dedicated faculty. Older students are very open and helpful. The new facilities opening next Fall are impressive, and will further enhance the strength of the medical school program. Fellowship with other medical disciplines will be a strong point. The administrative staff is very professional and personable. The ability to pursue clerkships in urban, suburban, inner city and rural settings is a very strong point for a medical student seeking a well rounded clinical experience. This is a good program for a mature and committed medical student.

What impressed you negatively?

The school is unable to provide adequate parking for students, at least not until 2008. This a major drawback for anyone in need of commuting, and an unfortunate issue for this very fine medical school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

The interview day is well structured and coordinated. The morning presentation includes a detailed powerpoint review of the curriculum (very helpful). Faculty, students and staff all seem very professional, dedicated and willing to be of assistance to the candidate. The open file interviews are a plus, as the interviewer is able to address specific issues quickly. The interviews ran on time. I was well impressed by the quality of the faculty and students.
