Apparently the clinical experience you receive at the school is pretty much the best in the state and one of the most comprehensive in the nation. One 4th year student remarked that some USF students knew more clinical procedures than residents in some cases.

Just really a positive experience overall and this school moved up in my draft board." Report Response
