What impressed you positively?

"Everything. UCI is marvelously well organized, and has fantastic resources for the students. Their new medical education facilities are fabulous and provide ample space and top-rate technology for learning clinical skills (amazing simulation center!). Every student I met was intelligent, focused, supportive and happy. The professor who interviewed me was very interested in getting to know my character beyond the numbers in my application (which is probably contributes to UCI's ability to select such a great group of students). Curriculum is P/F first two years, and more than 50% of class time is "active/hands-on learning". The new UCI Med Center is huge and well-respected. More perks: free iPads are given to first years, bucolic campus near the beach, but not at all isolated." Report Response

"Admissions office provides transportation to John Wayne airport after the interview day is over. Also, they provide dinner the night before the interview, and a full breakfast and lunch on the day of the interview (and it's all great food). They took care of so many details that I should not have worried about." Report Response
