"SDN, reviewed AMCAS and secondary" Report Response
"The students all seem happy, love the curriculum, and say they are not stressed and don't work any harder than students at other med schools. Everyone was friendly. The opportunities for research or second degrees durring the third year are amazing. The clinical education also seems to be one of the best. " Report Response
"It's really hot and muggy in North Carolina during the summer. Parking is expensive and about .75 miles from the hospital. " Report Response
"I didn't expect Durham to be so Southern, but almost all of the locals have strong Southern accents, and there is country music playing everywhere. Duke has really good financial aid, and the average student debt is approx 25k lower than the average debt at PUBLIC med schools. Duke also gives some full merit scholarships. Another thing- they black out your GPA and MCAT so that your interviewers don't have access to this info. " Report Response
"Arrive around 8am and take a picture for a name tag. There is no breakfast, so eat before you come. 8:30-9:15 is a welcome from the dean, then a financial aid presentation, then a tour. After the tour you have an early lunch (11am-12pm) followed by two interviews during the 12-3:30 time period. The interviews were very relaxed, and I wasn't asked any ethical questions during my beta interview. " Report Response
