What are your general comments?

"OHSU is a pretty nice laid back school; if you want a place that's as close as possible to a vacation while going to medical school, this is where to go. Obviously, it has many of the opportunities that you might want - and includes great early patient contact - but there's not a lot of structured time in the first two years. One of the few places I've been where the students were genuinely happy." Report Response
