California University of Science and Medicine

Overall, it was a great experience

Some of the programs that I had prepared questions for no longer exist and the website is just not updated. They need to update the website

The whole day was a little disorganized

My interviewer wanted to make it the least stressful as possible and it really felt like a chill conversation

mock interviews, researched the school

this school really impressed me and the faculty really seems to care about the students and their well being, and the student body seems to be really close and supportive of each other

how chill and laid back the interview was - it's just a conversation and it's nothing to be a nervous wreck over

it's a new school so things are constantly changing, also doesn't have loads of research opportunities

the curriculum is modern and will make sure you retain the info better (it's a flipped classroom with an emphasis on group work)

practiced these questions: why cusm? why medicine? tell me about yourself? i was well prepared. i also talked to current students

It was very chill, my interviewer was very friendly and the interview was conversation-based. About half of the time was for me to ask questions, so come prepared with good questions to ask.

nothing

The team based aspect

Mock interviews

It seems like an excellent up and coming medical school and I am very excited to potentially be a part of its new legacy here in San Bernadino, CA!

N/A

Nothing except that it is a very young medical school so there is some inherent risk in completing my medical education there.

Even though it's a very young school they are very serious about listening and implementing student feedback. They also present their curriculum in a way that is engaging and makes you take ownership of your learning.

I researched their website, found videos on youtube, and looked on SDN's previous year thread.
