Hey Med Schoolers-
I was recently accepted to UMass and was wondering if any of you are attending there right now or even know a lot about it. I was really impressed by 1) The INCREDIBLY low price and 2) the growing reputation for research (the new research building is state of the art and looks gorgeous and it really seems like they're making a push towards becoming more research oriented).
I also loved the curriculum, where class is generally only half day and students spend a lot of time in the doctor's office early on and the clinical rotations seem solid.
Can someone also tell me more about the construction? I don't know when it will finish, but that was one drawback when I interviewed. The whole place seemed like a construction site. But I hear the new ERs are supposed to be awesome and the hospital will become a model for trauma centers with the new design of the ER, Trauma rooms, and Radiology labs, as well as the adjacent ORs.
What do you guys think of the facilities. Sorry for the long post, but I was having trouble finding information. Thanks!!
