"SDN interview feedback, med school website, MSAR, talked to students who had interviewed here in the past." Report Response
"Seems to be a very supportive/community atmosphere. Lots of clinical/service experiences. Have honors programs in bioethics, research, and global health. Awesome fitness center attached to med school. School and nearby hospitals are REALLY beautiful and up-to-date. New research building going up right next to the med school." Report Response
"Grading is not true pass/fail (at least internally). 90=honors, 80=high pass, 70=pass. May not be a negative for some people, but students are not required to dissect their own cadavers - there are several prosected ones, and only a few students can dissect if they choose to." Report Response
"This was one of my tougher interviews! There were some really challenging questions (although not really anything you could predict/prepare for)." Report Response
