The interview circuit brought me to Houston this past weekend, where I managed to squeeze two schools into one day. I interviewed in the morning at the University of Texas Medical School at Houston (UT Houston) and, in the afternoon, at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM).
My day lasted from 7:30 am until 7:00 pm, and it would have been longer if I hadn't skipped out on the Baylor sponsored gathering at a local pub that night.
UT Houston
BaylorThe two schools are actually located within a two hundred yards of each other. They are both located within the Texas Medical Center- the largest medical district in the world (yes, everything is bigger in Texas). Its 45 medical institutions (among them 13 hospitals and 2 specialty institutions) provide more than enough clinical training opportunities for students of both schools.
The commons buildings, just one of many impressive places at the TMC.
One of the two 65-foot waterfalls flanking the commons building. Behind that you can see MD Anderson, the #1 cancer hospital in the country. Pretty Impressive.
I stayed with the Anthons- friends that used to live in my parents ward in California. They were such gracious hosts, driving me into the city and everywhere I needed to be. Larry (or "Doc") took me out to dinner to celebrate the successful completion of a very busy day of interviewing. Thanks Larry and Susan!
