"The public health integration within the core curriculum."
"The atmosphere of support, curiosity, and camaraderie."
"Spectacular city, great facilities, passionate teachers, down-to-earth students (for the most part), very socially active"
"Block exam schedule, pass/fail for the first year, lots of help from the school for you to succeed in your classes, lots of extracurricular activities and summer opportunities to get involved in including out-of-country experiences, public health important in the curriculum, lots of integration between courses to tie everything together, M1 professors are very passionate about teaching, WARM track for those interested in rural medicine, TRIUMPH track for those interested in urban medicine, dual degrees offered, lots of research opportunities, lots of opportunities to do away rotations in 3rd/4th year throughout the state and in other states."
"The new curriculum which started last year is not very effective in my opinion. It seems that this has made medicine much more difficult and it will be interesting to see how this new curriculum impacts my class mates and I in the long run."
"The winters really are cold."
"Could use better organization of years 2-4, but I was the first year of the "new" curriculum, so I may have been biased."
"No track for those interested in education, pretty much 0 official opportunities to be involved in/learn about education especially during M1-M2, unofficial opportunities are hard to find. Being that the school is continuing with the curriculum overhaul they started several years ago (which is overall going very well) I would thought that more of these education-type opportunities would be available. Office hours for courses sometimes aren't organized very well."
"I was told by a residency director that they'd rather take students from schools like UW than Ivy League schools because we're SO much better trained on physical exam, plus clinical flexibility and hard work. An Ivy league friend agreed- I've done 10x more procedures already as a 4th year student, he had never even sutured by himself by his intern year. That may be anecdotal, but stuff like that REALLY matters by the end of med school and looking at residencies. Overall, you get a superb training you can really be proud of. Plus, the Badgers rock! :)"
"I really love the UWSMPH and am very happy that I chose to come here for my medical education, however no school is perfect and I'm happy to talk honestly about both the pros and cons of the school."

"Only the lectures that have patients come in to talk to us are required, all other lectures are optional since they are recorded and pod-casted for us to watch later. Small group discussions are all mandatory but we don't have them every day."
"Pretty much none. The syllabi always make suggestions for books that are really good should students want a reference for a subject they're having trouble in but nothing is required. You are required to buy the course packets from the bookstore within the medical school. Netter's for the spring anatomy course is really useful but I didn't use any of the other recommended books."
"No, at least not in the first two years. We do talk in class about the shortage of primary care providers so in that sense students are aware that WI could really use PCPs but we aren't herded towards any particular speciality and are more encouraged to pick whatever we love the most. We have a career counselor to set us up with information on any specialty or opportunity we might be interested in. We also have interest groups for every conceivable specialty so we can learn more about each one."

"Many types including efficiencies, 1 BR, 2 BR, etc. Can be an apartment or floor of a house. Parking is expensive on campus but is free at clinical sites. Places very close to the med school are readily available and are usually pretty nice but can be a bit expensive if you don't want any roommates."

"UW Hospital and Clinics is connected to the medical and while crazy difficult to navigate through without getting lost is and excellent hospital. We are also affiliated with many hospital throughout the entire state as students are able ad encouraged to do rotations throughout the state."

"Students do a variety of activities including the Dean's Cup rivalry with the law school. Biking is popular since Madison has extensive and very nice bike paths. There is a Yoga group that meets every week. There are plenty of nice restaurants in the area with really good food. Going out to bars as groups is probably the most popular weekend activity."
"Very well. We have excellent career counseling services and our clinical training programs are strong. We tend to have good averages on the boards and plenty of research and other opportunities to get involved in and include on residency applications."
