"Students didnt want to provide any of the weakness about the school, which every school has. I am familiar with two of the top med schools in the country and can easily name weaknesses with both - so I wondered if they weren't telling us something. Also didnt like how the classes had to raise alot of money for their graduation (a seperate ceromony than regular graduation), I would figure the school would cover that and the class would make a donation or something at the end. Just my personal thought on it." Report Response
"Most airlines fly into Gainsville using smaller airplanes, which have smaller overhead compartments. Even if you are packing light, you may have to check your bag in." Report Response
"Like everyone else has said, Denise and Robyn are amazing and very friendly. Everyone tries to put you at ease. For most of the interviewees, it was the first interview we were going to, so some tension remained, but because you sit through a couple of presentations, a tour, and lunch before the interviews start some of the jitters go away. They try to pair you with interviewers that match to your application. I had one PhD and one MD, both of whom asked very good questions. Know your current events and your application's strengths and weaknesses. It seems to me that if they invite you to interview, you have passed their biggest academic criteria, so you want to sell yourself on the positives. Two tours, two interviews and then a wrap up session. I feel that one of the tours could have been eliminated in favor of an hour to just relax for a bit - they have you doing things the entire day. Everyone talks about the board scores too much I feel. Overall, a good experience and I think a great school to attend. I recommend staying with a student host." Report Response
