What impressed you negatively?

"cleveland isn't exactly the most happening place. also, our tour guide seemed to be selling the school through lies. for example, he said that case western would be receiving more NIH funds next year so as to be second most in the country. for some reason, i doubt that case western will have more funds than schools like penn, columbia, hopkins, and the like."
