Life at USC?

[Blin]

Does anyone know what life is like in the UCS ASPID program? I've used the search function, but the few posts haven't painted a full picture of what the typical days are like for the foreign trained students. A lot of people have posted their experience in normal dental schools, and I've spoken with people from some east coast schools, but I'm more curious about USC in particular. How much time we'll get to see our family, do we spend a lot of time with the traditional dental students, how was it compared to dental school in the host country, etc.

I'm curious if people have friends or family there that can relate more factual experiences more than just speculation. Anyway, I hope to hear from you,

Blin

I'm not a student in USC but one of my friend is. He always tells me that basiclly there is no life when you enter in that program. He has been going to school from 6am to 11pm( I don't know about the weekend). He always tries to convice me to forget going to USC if I love my family and I want to have life with them. He was so lucky that he got bench exam and he left USC.
