I had a meeting today with my program director discussing my interviews that I have received. I was suprised to find out that she didn't give Wake rave reviews. She was kind of +/- on whether to interview there. She thought way more highly of Hopkins, Michigan, UVA, UPENN, UAB, Wash U, Northwestern, etc...
She didn't go into great detail about what she had heard was wrong with the place but mentioned something about the patient population. (kind of vague) We kind of moved on with the discussion and it wasn't until after the meeting that I realized I wasn't real clear about her reasoning.
I was kind of disappointed by her words because I would enjoy living in North Carolina, but I don't want to sacrifice going to a great school just to live there. I was under the impression that Wake was arguably a top 10 school.
If anyone has any insight into the program from any angle; whether you've have heard from your program director, are a resident there or interviewed there last year; I love to hear more about the program. I am still definitely interviewing at Wake but I'm just wondering what I'm getting into.
