What impressed you positively?

"EVERYTHING!!! Love this place! The students are fantastic, the city is exciting, the patient population is diverse, the school/faculty is supportive, MD/MPH 4yr program, the laid-back atmosphere, my interviewers were amazing (Hi Father Don!!) party party party!!!" Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"the cost of the school. Anyone who says the area around the med school is too dirty is a little wimp. It's not that bad. Get over it! This isn't the burbs where mommy and daddy buy you an SUV and the manicured gardens and sidwalks are scrubbed clean. It's a real city with it's own flavor rather than some cookie cutter neighborhood where the quality of your lawn is a reflection of your worth." Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"The students and faculty are so laid back that they never go to class and have plenty of time (maybe too much) to explore what the city has to offer." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"Do not stress over this interview! All of my fellow interviewees said they had an awesome interview (but you know that not everyone will be accepted). Very conversational and relaxed. I will probably be going here over my state school, but not really sure at this point. Depends on how I feel if I get into my state school. The only thing that would keep me home is the price tag. Tulane is amazing!!!" Report Response
