What impressed you positively?

"The people are very friendly, both the students and the staff. The campus is nice and clean, although not in the greatest location. The hospital is huge and you serve a very diverse population, which is great. It seems as if the medical school really cares about the education of its students and wants to improve constantly."

What are your general comments?

"Overall, my experience at USC was great. The tour was informative and the students that led the tour were very helpful and friendly. The facilities are good and the hospital is great. You would definitely have great clinical experiences at USC since it's in downtown LA. Lunch was good (I had chinese chicken salad). The student interviewer actually asked harder questions than the faculty interviewer, but both were pretty relaxing. " Report Response
