What are your general comments?

"In the morning we had coffee/donuts and a few students talked with us. Then there was a presentation. Then interviews. Then the tour. The tour guide was really enthusiastic, as were many of the students we encountered. We got to sit in on a class for a few minutes, and then went to the anatomy lab. The anatomy lab was nice, and since the class size is so small, there are only 2 students per cadaver. Then we went to the simulation center, which was really cool. We had lunch at Boca Raton Community Hospital with a couple of 2nd years, and then we took a tour. Then we went back, had a final talk, and filled out evaluations. Overall I was pleasantly surprised with the school. " Report Response
