What are your general comments?
Pitt is pretty laid back, had breakfast, wrote a lil bit, interviewed, toured the area, had some Q and A and left, overall though, I am from Pittsburgh and they really took some creative liberty in describing Pittsburgh and all the "things" to do, I love pittsburgh too but they really were trying to spin everything into a positive

Pitt is cool, the area is full of students, and has a lot going on for those who like sports, cultural stuff, the program is pretty respected too

I was not really impressed at all with the facilities, the SIM lab although hyped up to be amazing was nothing spectacular in comparison to facilities at NYU, Case, or Buffalo(places I have seen), Board scores were low for part 1, concerns about seeing enough patients
