What impressed you positively?

"This school is so catered toward students! The housing is upstairs and connected to both the classrooms and the hospital, is guaranteed for four years, and is cheap for NYC($600/month). There are a ton of clubs and low cost services(movie tickets, parking) to students. The administration is known to change things in reponse to student feedback(i.e. curriculum,ways of testing, water coolers in the library-apparantly was is a big deal?). The school is really social ( friendly atmosphere, school rents out bars after big exams, students help each other). The neighborhood is safe and full of things to do(well I guess in Manhattan that is a given). Bellvue hospital, an affiliate, is one ofthe best hospitals in the world. " Report Response

What are your general comments?

"No worries, this is a laid back day. The tour is comprehensive- they show you everything from the ER of Bellvue, to a dorm room in Reuben hall, the gross anatomy lab, study areas, etc. The lunch was basic sandwiches, but was a great opportunity to talk to the many med students that decided to sit an join. Throughout the day, students stopped by and were more than willing to talk about NYU. My interviewer was a very genuine, sweet pediatrician who was happy to listen and very enthusiastic/helpful/easy to talk to. " Report Response
