What impressed you negatively?

"hmm... where to begin. 1) the faculty was arrogant and spoke disparagingly about other med schools and in general other institutions. this wasnt the case for all the faculty i met, but it was a stark enough difference from the other schools i interviewed at that it stood out 2) the students were so frat boy/ sorority girl types. almost without exception. 3) i'm just not a fan of the overly traditional curiculum that the school has. to me if students are skipping a significant number of lectures - the SYSTEM IS FAILING!" Report Response

What are your general comments?

"Overall, my feelings towards the school are mixed. The arrogance that I perceived, both on the part of the faculty and students irritated me. In my opinion, CU has an over inflated sense of self-worth. It is still a good school, but where the school was my first choice prior to the interview, its now my second or third. And another thing - maybe my experience was unique, but the school did more talking than i did on these interviews. I mean out of 6 interviews, only one asked about my research! what is that?"
