"the facilities were decent" Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"1. Students seemed drone-like, as if they were just getting by. 2. school emphasized board scores so much as if they wanted to mold a group of average students into something to boast about. 3. Student housing is like a dorm suite...not my thing. I need my independence and more separation of medical school and personal time. 4. The middle of nowhere location, coupled with the fact that there is no undergraduate campus, nor is there other professional/grad schools around make for a very lonely and isolated experience."
