What are your general comments?

A long day, but very informative and fun. The panel interview was kind of weird; it felt like there were 3 separate, simultaneous interviews. But the group discussion (see below) was really great.

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN questions, talking to current students, reviewing application

What impressed you positively?

The area, the students seemed really well-rounded, a hybrid curriculum (about 50-50 PBL and lecture)

What impressed you negatively?

Weather! Chicago was colder than I thought it would be for September. Girls, wear pants.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

When they say check in at 7:30, they mean exactly 7:30. I walked in the door at 7:32 by their clock and just barely managed to check in before they took us all to another building for a speech by the dean (and then brought us back to the original room to wait for our interviews; it was kind of silly).
