"I read all I could about MMI format and sample questions. I carefully read US Health Care Reform, Medicare, and Medical Ethics articles on Wikipedia. These helped tremendously. I also found that researching the medical school, Carilion Hospital system, and the surrounding area helped me to better appreciate the experience and help me imagine living there." Report Response
"Nearly everything: the interview process was both personal and professional. The faculty and students are clearly dedicated and passionate workers. The structure of the interview experience allowed the interviewees to get to know one another, the school, and the neighborhood well. Everything has been planned and purposely designed for student success - because there aren't any laurels to rest upon here (unlike the big Ivys who couldn't care less if TAs taught oversized classes) - they have shown commitment to each individual."

"How much I would like it!" Report Response
"New medical schools, in general, are a breed apart. It's natural to be cautious and wary of a yet "unproven" school, but consider that millions of dollars and decades of research have gone into forming the most modern undergraduate medical educational experience yet. Established schools in the upper echelons of US News & World Report Rankings aren't ranked on the happiness of their students either. In a positive environment that fosters imaginative thinking and learning, tomorrow's leaders might come from a place you didn't know the name of yesterday." Report Response
