What impressed you negatively?

"It is expensive, but then again so is every private med school. People complain about the city being dirty, run down, etc. but this is New Orleans, its an old city. The unique culture more than makes up for a lack of cleanliness. I don't like closed-file interviews." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"Basically, I didn't know much about Tulane prior to the interview, and the laid-back atmosphere of the school and the great students were a true breath of fresh air. One of my interviewers was very by-the-book and somewhat rigid, but the other was one of the coolest guys I have met in a long time. The student interviewer was super nice and empathetic. A wonderful experience." Report Response
