What are some things you Like/Hate about your school?
Likes: clinical education, which is apparent when i meet other students from different schools. preclinic is brand new and great, clinics are all renovated, faculty are phenomenal.
a big plus is that the school wants you to stay, there are others that if you fail a class, you are either kicked out or have to repeat a year, etc. they will try very hard here to make sure you succeed. thats extremely valuable.
- few things i realized after starting: temple eases you into the course work, first semester is not bad at all, 2nd year is the toughest. ive realied that not hitting the ground running was a big benefit, you were able to assimilate better to the environment. we take our boards part 1 after 2 years, so we werent slammed with coursework our first year(some schools take boards after their first year). and let me tell you, dont let schools try to throw pass rate stats at you, passing both part 1 and 2 are very easy.
- our lectures are recorded, so you can go online and replay them at any speed you would like. thats a huge benefit.(many schools offer this).
. there are many other likes that im sure will come to me as ppl ask questions.
DISLIKES: the schools location isnt in hollywood, but thats a big part of the reason why our clinical education is great.
