What impressed you positively?

"Mayo is a tremendous facility. The hospital is absolutely amazing and even more astounding because it is relatively in the middle of nowhere. The history of the place is really neat, and it is something that they are very proud of and love to talk about. Everyone, students and faculty, was very friendly and helpful. When we were eating lunch with the students, three faculty members stopped to say hello. you get the impression that everyone wants to be there. The financial aid is fantastic. " Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"The student to faculty ratio is obviously fabulous in many ways, but the small class I would think would be overwhelming after a while.
