What impressed you negatively?:
Didn't meet chairman and the PD was so SHY! The morning report was sooooo boring. The facilities are really depressing. NO HOUSING! COME ON! This is NYU! Why is there no housing? Report as inappropriate
How was your interview day? Please summarize.:
It was very relaxed. Start the day off at morning report and get breakfast. The whole day is spent near a resident so you will always have someone to talk to. Interviews occur in the morning. Most people had very quick 10 minute interviews. One group interviews first and the other group goes on 1 on 1 OR discussions with a resident. After that is the tour. Then lunch with residents (they serve pasta!!!) and an optional tour of Tisch which really is NOT worth the time. Report as inappropriate
