What impressed you positively?:
Where to begin? For one, I loved Nashville. Great music scene, good restaurants, decent weather, easy to fly in and out of and affordable! The hospital is beyond gorgeous, but I try not to let that sway me. Residents seemed happy, even the interns with the tough schedules. Tons of flexibility in the schedule for advocacy/international health/research/whatever you want to make of it. Good amount of Spanish speaking patients, which was important to me.

What impressed you negatively?:
One of my interviews was the least enjoyable of the 8 one-on-one interviews I've had so far. More like a med school interview, but really wasn't that bad. There is a tough call schedule, with high volume, but that also might not really be a bad thing, just something to expect. Report as inappropriate
