What impressed you positively?

"Very nice campus with the new buildings. Nice anatomy lab and OMM lab. Great COMLEX scores. All notes are printed and available for students before lectures. Clinical mentors are assigned in the first year and this can give you the chance to do some cool stuff (or not al lot of stuff) depending on who your mentor is. 80% of the class does an MD residency. Tutors are available." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"Very small fitness center...most students go off campus to work out. 3rd and 4th year are "very self motivated." AZCOM is not really affiliated with a base hospital. The campus is not as technologically advanced as some...no smart boards, PDA, or laptops in class. As a MSIII you must return to campus every few weeks...this would be hard if you were living in another state!" Report Response
