I am accepted at Toledo and had a few questions. I searched the 2009 and 2010 class threads but didn't get answers to all of these. I would be very grateful if someone (especially a current student) could tell me regarding Toledo (aka MUO, MCO):
1. Are classes mandatory (e.g. with sign-in sheets?)
2. Are lectures on IPOD?
3. What is the grading system? Is it P/NP?
4. Are coursepacks very detailed? If anyone could send me a sample (e.g. for histo or biochem) I'd be most indebted.
5. How many California kids were able to go back to California for residency last year? (As you can tell, I hella heart Oakland). All I could find was the summary match list--not the program-by-program breakdown.
6. What is the exam schedule like? Is it realistically feasible to fly home to the fiancee and family in California one weekend a month? How easy is it to get to the airport from school?
7. How many hours would I expect to spend in class per day at Toledo?
8. Is it true you get in-state tuition after 1 year provided you establish Ohio residency?
9. Is academic support good? I am really worried about getting lost in a sea of 145 brilliant kids. If I fall behind I want to know there is someplace I can turn.
10. Is bus service in Toledo good and reliable? I was hoping to avoid bringing my car out, so I wanted to find a apartment that has a direct bus route to campus.
11. How good is the support system when it comes to choosing residency programs to apply to?
12. How is the environment? Is it very formal? I know staff and students are exceedingly nice and helpful, but I do get the impression it's extremely formal (dress codes, etc).
Thank you SO MUCH in advance for any help.
