"There are a ton of community outreach programs that UIC partcipates in. UIC also really listens to the students so when there's an issue (like having too much lecture time all at once, having anatomy too early in the year, etc), the school takes action to make the curriculum better. The schedule was just recently changed to make the first year easier to adjust to. The professors are also supposedly very accessible in case you have questions about lecture material. The Dean of Admissios was also pleasantly nice! " Report Response

"Nothing. It was a really easy interview day." Report Response
"The afternoon interview session started at 11am and the Dean formally welcomed us with a Powerpoint presentation. We then took a really quick tour of the med school building, saw the lecture halls, and had lunch. I had three interviews (one with a med student, one with a retired surgeon, and one with an advisor from the Hispanic recruiting office), all of which were super laid back. I was not stressed at all. None of the other perspective students including myself seemed stressed and there were zero curve ball difficult questions in either of my three interviews. They seemed to only have access to our secondaries and Personal Statement. I spent two of the interviews talking about what was on my Personal Statement. " Report Response
