I wouldn't say that IAU offers a Jump start to anything. Since the beginning of this semester, the case studies have been severely limited. We used to present a topic every week, and now it's every 3 weeks. Our hands on clinical part has also been cut, we only visit Laborie clinic once, and Vieux Fort clinic once (per semester).

The biggest concern at the moment is the anatomy class. Apparently there was an issue in acquiring a cadaver for the class. We went the whole first month of class with a cadaver that had been used by two previous courses. They also let the Anatomy instructor go, who in my opinion, was the best instructor for that topic.

Is anyone in Dallas ever going to update the Faculty list on the website? Half of the faculty listed is no longer here, or no longer teaching.

I recomend calling the school, or the main office of any campus you are looking at. Ask alot of questions, and make sure you get answers. Also, try to get as much of it in writing as possible. I'm still waiting on a grading policy in writing.....

Good luck.
