What impressed you positively?:
The level f comraderie among both the residents and residents and faculty. The program struck me as an incredibly supportive place to train. The residents had only positive things to say about the program and spoke highly of career and fellowship placement. They seemed to be a very smart, driven, and passionate group of people who had the choice to attend any residency program but chose Mount Sinai because it fit their personality and learning style. Very strong simulation program and available education track to enable residents to learn how to be physician educators. The intern year was a good mix of surgery, medicine, and anesthesia.

What impressed you negatively?:
How was your interview day? Please summarize.:
Get there around 8:00, change into scrubs because I forgot to bring my own. I'd recommend bringing your own, the ones they give you fit weird. Eat breakfast and listen to Dr. Levine talk about the program for about 2 hours. Tour the facilities, lunch with residents, and then interviews. The interview with Dr. Reich is a little more formal and very short. The other two with Dr. Levine and another faulty member are more informal. The day ends around 3:00-4:00. There is no dinner the night before. Report as inappropriate
