HEy Perambulate - have u decided to come to P&S? If so, congrats! I'll let some others post their opinions and I think there may be a thread about this, search for it.
But in nutshell - it was incredible, exhausting, fun, and the ppl were great.
I agree. I had a blast. Completely sold me. These students really have LIVES outside of med school, and have the time and the backing of the institution to develop other interests. They aren't completely one-dimensional, which is something I picked up on from other places. That was so important to me in looking for a school.
Plus, I came from an undergrad where tradition is very important. P&S focuses a lot on tradition and school unity, which also appeals to me.
