You’ll hear it thrown around a lot on the interview days at different programs, but I think it rings especially true about PDM – community. The admissions staff does a great job of picking a unique and well-rounded class. We have all different kinds of people in our class, each who possessing different interests, both career-wise as well as personality-wise. The class size is great in the sense that you know who everyone is by name, but you do not feel pressured to be part of a certain friend group, as there are many. In terms of class morale, there are a couple “gunners,” but again, that is true of most schools. Overall, I feel as though there are always people I can go to to study with and ask for help.
