What impressed you positively?

"Almost everything. The students were extremely friendly and willing to help. Many of them seemed like cool people and not dorky like at many other schools. Ross hall where the med school is located was not bad at all, I expected worse from what other people have said on this site. Definitely not "dingy 70s style". There new hospital is amazing and the access to technology is one of a kind. Also, you can't go wrong with the location. It's in a very nice part of DC and you get exposure to people from all types of backgrounds i.e. poor all the way up to presidents." Report Response
