What impressed you positively?

"The students I talked with seemed happy and the way the school integrates technology is amazing. I can't think of any other school that gives you a laptop and a PDA. Integrating technology with everyday clinical decision making is the way of the future and FSU understands this. Despite the school's young age, I think anyone coming out of FSU will have a great medical education and be well prepared to practice clinical medicine." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"The day starts off at 11AM with a meet and greet with Dr. Eveland. Dr. Eveland is a real nice guy and he gives you a great overview of where the school is now and where it's going. After that, you have lunch with a couple second year medical students followed by a tour. When I was there, the CLC was locked and we didn't get to see it but the rest of the school was impressive. Both of my interviewers were great and I learned a lot about the school. Dr. Van Durme was great and told me how FSU is integrating evidence-based medicine into the curriculum." Report Response
