What are your general comments?

"I loved this school! Well set up interview day...very little down time like at other schools and you have the option to leave after interviews are over for flights etc. The Texas Medical Center is the largest med center in the world(bigger than the NIH). It would be an amazing place to study and is brimming with opportunity. One of my interviewers was a 4th year med student and the other was a faculty member. My student host invited me to one of her morning classes. In the past I was advised not to sit in on a class b/c it would have no bearing on my decision. I totally disagree. Not only did the class get me excited about Baylor, but also medical school in general. The professor was the most dynamic lecturer I have ever witnessed and the students loved him. I also got to see how the class interacted with one another. " Report Response
