What are your general comments?

"Pretty good school, I feel Indiana kind of gets a bad rep but overall I kind of liked the school, more so then I thought I would going in. The student giving me the tour didnt seem to like PBL but its only about 30% of your curriculum unlike a couple of schools that have 100% PBL. The cost of living there is really cheap, which is great but cost to go to the school for an out-of-state resident is a little high for what you actually get. The facilities are a little older but they do have some newer clinics. Research opportunities seem plentiful and the actual clinical experience you get seems to be really good. Dr. Kasberg also was really friendly and made you feel welcome." Report Response
