"I interviewed really well - but I didn't learn much about the school no matter how many questions I asked. No one was willing to talk about the basic science curriculum (except that they have letter grading), no one was willing to address the horrible board pass rates nor how the school controls/sets up a clinical curriculum; the tour was lead by an MSI - who knew NOTHING about the inner workings of a medical education (but in his kindness he did offer to ask someone else and email us) etc." Report Response
