What impressed you positively?

"Their dedication to the community of Kingsville was awesome and heartwarming. Kingsville is mostly a rural area that seems to not have that much money. What this program does to improve the living environment and promote awareness in this community really attracted me to this program. The faculty/staff were also very nice, the pharmacy building and surrounding university were also very nice, and this program looks like it's heading in a good direction. (they kept bragging about how they were a top 50 pharmacy school after graduating only three classes) There was also no essay section, they pulled that from your pharmcas essay and PCAT essay." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"At first the area, but I realized that this program is so involved in helping and improving life in Kingsville and South Texas, so this actually became a positive. There was a time where we had to sit through a 15-20 minute powerpoint with no speaker. I thought that was strange..." Report Response
