Since this is Dell's thread, I would mention that under the radar, there is a **** ton of interest about Dell's 1 year pre-clinicals; like does it even make sense, how can it be done effectively, can it be scaled to larger classes and what kind of step scores will it produce. So lots of med school deans are going to be looking out this year and next as the Dell kids begin to take their step to see how they do. Because it's been shown that regardless of how great your admit class is, the quality of teaching/curriculum will show in the step scores. Now it is possible that Dell's first step scores will be an outlier but no one can know till a few years at least. For now it will either justify them or raise a lot of questions about their approach.
