What are your general comments?

"LLU is a great school for the atmosphere and patient-centered approach towards education, and it's especially great if you're an Adventist. To a non-Adventist it may seem a little small and stuffy and the academic facilities will probably be a step down from what you're used to, but the quality of education is still good. Also, they're working on improving the facilities drastically, especially with the opening of a new building featuring a full-floor medical simulation center." Report Response
