"reading my resume, SDN.com, reviewing possible interview questions" Report Response
"ample clinical opportunities, Mr. Hinkley (he will answer any question and is quite humorous), opportunities for research and other involvement (e.g. medical missions), the Boca Raton campus (in case you want a more quiet place for your first two years), high acceptance rate if you're interviewed (>50%), med students were pretty nice" Report Response
"the location (Miami is a hectic place if you're not used to it), the costs of the education, some of the facilities could have been more updated" Report Response
"parking and driving in Miami can be crazy" Report Response
"The day was relatively quick and easy. After some presentations about the school and research, you tour and have lunch. Then you have your interview. There is only one interview (versus the two interview format of many schools). I was a bit nervous during the day for two reasons: 1) Miami is very hectic for a small-town person like me and 2) I didn't prepare and come in as relaxed as I should have. My interviewer made me feel a bit nervous, but that was because I was not giving clear enough answers (again, my fault, not his). The day wraps up and you're sent off. You find out the school's decision about 3 weeks after the interview by e-mail. " Report Response
