Great school. Hanover is kind of small, but there are a lot of opportunities there, with DHMC being the major hospital for a large area. Additionally, there\'s also the off-site 3rd year clerkships which are exciting. Students seemed happy, chill. We\'ll see how it goes. I felt like one of my interviews went meh, and the other one a bit better...I guess I\'ll find out in a few months.
loved the Bronx, loved the school, and the students. They seemed genuinely happy, and willing to interact with applicants, etc. They also had awesome facilities for student and couples housing.
Summary of Experience:
Interview Invite for 12/10...very happily surprised!
Liked the interview...they have great facilities that are new and centrally located in Dallas, renowned research, and the ability to do public policy research.
Downside -- they have grades after the first semester. I am concerned that it will lead to competition. But the students all say it didn\'t though.
OMG I can\'t believe I got into Southwestern! So excited :-D
