Tell me sth about BATES!

<p>I have some questions:</p>

<p>1 Why last year’s medical school acceptance rate is 100%? I remembered that Bates do have strong economics department, but how’s the reputation on medical school acceptance?</p>

<p>2 How’s the housing? I looked the picture and it doesn’t seem to provide much information. Anyone tell me?</p>

<p>3 How’s the party there? It is said that bates is a party school, is it true?</p>

<p>4 How’s the campus safety. I learnt from student review that Lewiston is not a safe place? is it???</p>

<p>1) can't help you there, but I can tell you that the med majors I know are in a rigorous program.</p>

<p>2) Housing is usually good. Nothing exceptional, but they're good at roommate placement and there are some beautiful residence halls</p>

<p>3) Bates is a school where you can party if you want, or study hard if you want. The chem-free students are great kids, along with the ones not under chem-free. I know that the school is very lax on enforcing alcohol. And the students are very good at balancing out school and partying.</p>

<p>4) Campus security does a fantastic job. Lewiston is slowly getting better, and the campus feels very secure. A while back off-campus a student was killed in a confrontation, but it was the only student slain in the school's history. It is not a concern that you should worry about.</p>

<p>Good luck and hope I see you at Bates next fall!</p>
