What impressed you positively?

What impressed you negatively?

"My interviewer gaslighted me the entire time. She dismissed my personal experiences. She pretty much said representation doesn’t matter in medicine. Such a dangerous mindset to have- to be able to excuse patients hardships just because you were privileged enough to not have to deal with those issues. I asked a few students about their experience at VCOM and they described it as ‘backwards’ and that they were soely here for the degree but leaving once they graduated. They had positive things to say about the faculty though so maybe my interviewer was just having a bad day." Report Response
