I'm a girl hahaha but everyone was SUPER sweet, it was a very conversational-type interview, they don't try to pressure you or grill you at all. They take you on a nice campus tour and give you lots of helpful info about the school.
Also, are you referring to the 3rd yr rotation sites? My girlfriend is a third year at VCOM and I'm actually living with her at her rotation site in Abingdon, VA right now. To be totally honest, the locations are mostly QUITE rural. However, you do get to choose to stay in VA versus try another state, and you get to rank your choices within that state, so there's a good chance you don't have to be in the middle of nowhere if you don't want to be. Also, the actual clinical experience at the rotation sites is great, per my gf. They get lots of 1-on-1 time with the docs, they get to see patients on their own sometimes, and they have super high COMLEX-2 scores to back that up. If you can deal with (possibly) being away from Blacksburg for a year, I think its worth it. I think somewhere between 1/2-1/3 of the third years get to stay in Blacksburg for rotations.
