What impressed you positively?

"Lots: The school is very new and employs cutting edge technology. Toured the brand new sim lab, which has HD video cameras for the instructor to use to monitor the progress of the students at their stations (in addition to the 25 instructors that will be circulating through the lab). They also plan on using CEREC or similar technology as an option for labwork, and all charting and x-rays are digital. They also plan on having i-cat scanning for oral surgury cases. They employ a systems-based approach to learning coursework. For example, when you study the cardiovascular system, you will learn the histology, biochemistry, microbiology, pharmacology, anatomy, physiology, and perform a case study, all of which helps integrate what you learn more effectively (theoretically at least). The faculty are very friendly, well-qualified, and genuinely concerned with providing the best education possible. " Report Response
