What impressed you positively?

"Buffalo seems to be ranked well under what they should be by most with whom I have spoken. The people are honest and friendly, and there is a strong emphasis on handling the admissions process ethically and efficiently. The committee decides your fate from the interviews the same day that you have them. After October 15, when AAMC allows applicant notification, the school updates your status the very next day. That, in my opinion, is very cool. There are many positives about this school that I believe are overlooked far too often (CHEAP tuition, great cultural life, and amazing resources for those willing to seek them out)." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"The building were out of date and the area of the school lacks charm (to say the least), but there is much construction going on at this point and the school has plans for new facilities in the next few years. Yes, 8 people to a cadaver, but who cares? You'll get all the time you want later in your career." Report Response
