What impressed you positively?

"Students are friendly, a diverse student body, a lot of clinical experiences during the first two years. However if you are female then you have a good chance of getting into UH. I heard last years class was 2/3 female." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"Professionalism of interviewers (my interviewers took calls during the interview and seemed very distracted). Admissions staff and dean were rude. Facilities were old and students who enter this year won't get to use the new school they are building. Level of students was lacking since the school chooses to admit much less qualified ethnic minorities over other qualified non minority students. (Since students teach each other in the PBL curriculum I would want to have competant classmates)" Report Response
