"Interviewers were interesting; the breadth of electives available from the first year (homeless medicine, etc. that get you into the community and into the clinical setting with a variety of populations right away) plus the gimme of wilderness medicine, which, in Colorado, would be a lot of fun" Report Response
"Even though the facilities are up to the task, the school has been catching criticism for focusing too much on the move to the new Fitzimmons Center; students will start there beginning in 2005. It might not be the best time to be going to UCHSC, but overall it still seems like a quality institution." Report Response
"Not much." Report Response
"Not too stressful; interviewers didn't try any dirty tricks. Interviewers had not seen our file outside of the personal statement and bio info; they presented their findings, and others looked just at numbers and recommendations. Interesting approach. This means that you're free to wow the interviewers with the intangibles of why you want to be a physician. They did say, "is there anything I should know?" and it was emphasized that weaknesses in numbers, if they existed, should be covered, so be ready to explain any problems. " Report Response
