"Excellent educational opportunities. welcoming atmosphere. great if youre pursuing neurology or orthopedics."
"There are so many opportunities here. Whatever your area of interest (or curiosity) it is very easy to find a faculty member who would be happy to have you work with them. Also doing a family medicine-type clerkship in the first two years is great - you learn a lot plus it keeps you motivated and you can see the material learned in class in a clinical perspective."
"third year grading system is problematic. The school operates on a 20% honors, 30% High Pass and 50% pass and the grades are almost entirely based on evaluations (some clerkships consider SHELF to be worth 20% but all require passing this exam). Since evaluations are highly subjective and entirely dependent on who is evaluating you, the grading system is neither accurate nor precise which means that you can get unlucky even if you are attractive and charming. You may find that comparable institutions (Brown, Boston, Dartmouth, Tufts, etc) do much better in the match."
"Too much class time. While lectures aren't mandatory, there are mandatory small group activities more days than not. The amount of time is part of the downside of doing more intense clinical work during your first two years."
"The school has a decent reputation in almost every regard and a deserved excellent reputation in education. There are many opportunities to take advantage of at UR but be aware that you may end up with a less than desirable match or be unable to go for a competitive specialty given the unfortunate grading system."
"Most students are here because they want to be at this school in particular, whereas I feel some schools in say nyc get students who are more enthusiastic about the area than the school. There is a lot of individual support here, both from the faculty as well as fellow students checking in on each other."

"There are a few different areas of grauate student (mostly medical) housing. This ranges from an apartment building next to the hospital to a nearby complex of houses with multiple bedrooms, playground, etc that are preferred by families. Not very expensive, plus most come with utilities included (heat can cost a lot in rochester, not having to turn down the thermostat to save money is really nice)."

"Pass/Fail, the top 10% in a given class get a small recognition, such as inclusion of this information in their dean's letters. However I have not seen this cause any competition or stress, most people are not in the top 10, so we just focus on passing. I don't think it takes away from the advantages of the pass-fail system, but rather gives the top students an opportunity to be additionally recognized."

"Strong, the main teaching hospital, is excellent and most highly regarded in the area. Students sometimes rotate at other affiliated hospitals nearby. Administration seems responsive to student concerns - a "bad" rotation at a specific hospital has been eliminated to do complaints."
"Rochester has a great variety - from urban, inner-city, poorer communities, to middle class/upper middle class suburban communities, to pretty rural communities in the surrounding region. I think the diversity of the patient population is definitely a strong aspect of the clinical training."

"Go out to different restaurants, bars, occasionally to dance clubs. Several movie theatres, including a nearby $2 theatre and good independent theatre. Lots of opportunities for outdoor activities close by - hiking, rock climbing, downhill skiing, cross country skiing, etc."
"Graduates are well-regarded by residency directors. In particular, having had 4 years of clinical work as opposed to 2 years, students are known for being very competent and comfortable talking to and counseling patients compared to students form other schools."
