"normal stuff, I didn't do much because I've been on so many other interviews" Report Response
"The staff is welcoming and friendly, probably the most friendly I've meet. That is really important because it is representative of how the university will take care of you once you matriculate. The weather is nice. The students are nice, I can see myself going to school with them. Some other reports suggest that nobody studies here, but I didn't get that impression. Students do study and want to do well. " Report Response
"Irvine is kind of in the middle of nowhere, at least I thought it would be more urban or even suburban. But when you get there it is surrounded by undeveloped, dead land. I expected it to be more dense. You definitely need a car to go to school there unless you live in the on campus housing (which is a good deal if you can get it!) I liked the student body but was not overly impressed with them. But then again, I've only been impressed by one or two school's student bodies. The facilities are kind of boring and plain. And the hospital is not where you take all of your classes. Minimal patient contact in the first and second years (if that is important to you.)" Report Response

"It was a well-organized day but it was LONG. you get there around 8:00 AM and are not done until 3:30. And there is not a lot of down time. My first student interview went well, but they always go well. My second interview with a faculty member went so well that I was not asked one question. We simply talked about medicine, technology, people, problems in the workplace that people have, medical advances, and other odds and ends. It was great just to have a conversation. I think it's a good school and it's close to the beach and it will compete with all acceptances I am fortunate to earn from the non top-20 schools." Report Response
