"Clinical experience and pathology. You will see things in Detroit you won't see anywhere else. And because the hospitals are chronically understaffed, you will get to do more than many of your colleagues at other schools."
"The quality of clinical rotations in third year is unmatched. The teaching at the affiliated hospitals that students rotate at combined with the volume and diversity of pathology is tremendous. Students leave Wayne State fully prepared to function as more than competent interns, often moreso than other programs that are viewed as more prestigious."
"Generally unresponsive administration (this is changing fast). Poor coordination between/among lecturers in different topics- we often get taught the same thing multiple times. Teaching to step 2 rather than step 1."
"The quality of the support staff working for student affairs, financial aid, etc. at times is frustratingly poor. It can be difficult to obtain things like transcripts, signatures for forms, etc."
"This school is known for its clinical medicine, generally putting students in the trenches. Also has ample research opportunities, and a vast array of residency options. School itself has passable facilities, no-frills working infrastructure, and key resources for students to succeed. Poor alumni network and utilization, poor class cohesion, but attendings know what going through Wayne means- and they know you will have solid clinical skills after this program."
"Low cost of tuition, low cost of living, excellent clinical training, great residency placement and a recent boom/turnaround in the city of Detroit make the educational experience at this school highly desirable."

"Very infrequently. Wayne State is on the cutting edge of video-streaming technology for its lectures. Therefore the only classes with required attendance are labs and group discussions for the most part. Students are free to stream lectures on their own schedule and the site can be accessed anywhere."

"There are a number of housing options available, many of which are within walking distance of the school. Others are located in the more vibrant downtown, and students also live in the surrounding suburbs 15 minutes away (Royal Oak, Ferndale, Madison Heights, Southfield, etc. ) Housing prices are definitely rising as of late due to the popularity of moving downtown, but are still significantly lower than other major cities. Nice 1 bedrooms range from $600-$1,000. 2 bedrooms around $1,000-$1,600. But again, prices very widely and you can find places that are significantly cheaper and more expensive than this."

"Students rotate at 1 of 4 different hospital systems (DMC, Henry Ford, Oakwood, St. Johns). The teaching at each is comparable and all great. Required rotations during 3rd year are Internal Medicine (2 months), Pediatrics (2 months), Family Medicine (1 month), Elective (1 month), OB/GYN (2 months), General Surgery (2 months), Neurology (1 month), Psychiatry (1 month)."
"Depends on the rotation. As an example in Internal medicine patients are usually required to carry 1 or 2 patients. They are expected to act as the primary provider for the patient. This includes pre-rounding on the patient, writing the note, putting in orders (pended orders in EPIC), presenting the patient on rounds, and signing out to the next shift. Obviously everything you do is run by the resident first, but being put in charge of every aspect of patient care is extremely beneficial in learning what its like to operate as a resident. Residency programs continue to comment on how well clinically prepared Wayne State students are to become residents."
"There is a large diversity of patient populations between and within each clinical site. Students will see everything from homeless patients without insurance with neglected chronic disease to wealthy business people who need management of well controlled conditions. The variety is a huge asset of the school."

"The large class size affords great opportunities to get together with people outside of school. With 300 people in the class you are almost guaranteed to find a group of like-minded people to socialize with outside of class. People go to the many bars, restaurants, sporting events, parks, etc. that Detroit has to offer."
"Students match above the national average for residency in a wide range of specialties, both competitive and less competitive. Wayne grads can be found in residencies, academic settings, and private practices across the country. There is a strong alumni base to draw from."
"Reputation for producing physicians with a strong clinical focus. There isn't necessarily a single specialty that Wayne grads gravitate to - there are equal and abundant opportunities for exposure to every specialty in medicine."
"After having gone through residency interviews, I can not understate how many times I heard from faculty and residency directors at other programs how impressed they have been with Wayne grads they have taken into their program. Wayne students have a reputation for receiving top notch clinical training and having all the tools necessary to hit the ground running as independent and more than competent residents."
