"Nothing really" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"Read a lot of books (esp. books by Atul Gawande) and Sicko by Jonathon Cohn. I also went through my primary and secondary application and practiced on a video camera a few times. None of it was strictly necessary." Report Response
"The collegial atmosphere, the new infrastructure for the class of 2014, the eco-friendliness of the school, the opportunities for community services, and the opportunities for study abroads." Report Response
"The difficulty to get to Charlottesville even though they say it's easy. If you have a significant other in New York or Boston, it won't be very cheap to meet them too often." Report Response
"How friendly UVa is! Also, the university claims that its patient base is quite diverse. C'ville is a refugee site so you're likely to meet patients from all over the world despite the remote location of the med school. Also, because the hospital is the only tertiary medical centre and level 1 trauma centre in the region, it services areas as distant as Northern Tennessee." Report Response
"I think it's a brilliant school to go to. Definitely consider going. Everyone seemed happy and eager about the school, the new infrastructure, and the new curriculum. They're focused on making med school more enjoyable and moving away from the lecture format. I saw a lot of negative comments in the interview feedback, but I think they're decidedly misguided."
