"Students all seem very friendly and positive about the school. Dean Hinkley seemed very open to receiving feedback from us, which impressed me. Great clinical exposure, lots of opportunities for research, seems like everything you can hope to get out of med school is available if you just seek it out. All in all, it struck me as a great place to go to school." Report Response

"The interview was held with one faculty member and was fairly conversational and low stress. She asked a wide variety of questions, but nothing too off the wall that really through me for a loop. Besides the standard questions gauging my knowledge and exposure to healthcare, she was interested in determining who I was as a person and whether I was happy and well-adjusted socially. I thought it was a good idea to ask these types of questions at an interview. Miami seems to like students who are well-rounded instead of gunner stress cases." Report Response
