What impressed you positively?

"I think the pros of attending UW would be the in-state tuition, location, and wide array of community rotations to choose from. " Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"I don't know if the curriculum the first two years would really suits me. They have tons of class hours, clinical/preceptor experiences are one faculty member to six students rather than one on one like most schools have. Also the college system seems a little like middle school. One day you are supposed to interview someone with a chronic illness and write an essay about the experience.... I don't think that would a significant experience to anyone that has actually worked in a clinical setting. " Report Response
