What impressed you positively?

"Friendliness- everyone seems to be having a great time and to have time to enjoy themselves outside of school. Students are also really involved in the community as well as in health fair outreaches in greater Florida. Also, the administration really seems to care about the students and their opinions about the curriculum." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"I had a really, really nice time. The girls of 1920 were so welcoming (and had a GORGEOUS house) and even drove me to and from the interviews. Definitely stay with a student-- you'll get a much more interesting experience. The campus is beautiful as well, and Jackson would be a terrific place to do clinical training." Report Response
