How did you prepare for the interview?

I read SDN, skimmed my personal statement, spoke to current students, & read the CWRU website.

What impressed you positively?

Everything!! The facilities were newer and part of a beautiful campus. The students all seemed chilled out and friendly. They staff was great. They had a special meeting and great for minority students to ask off-the-record questions to current students of color.

What impressed you negatively?

The freezing cold Cleveland weather. Parking in the school ramp was $9 for the day and they don't validate parking.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

(-) Tuition is VERY expensive. Yearly budget is ~$50K. (+) 95% of students who interview at Case end up getting into a medschool somewhere. That probably would have boosted my confidence a bit if I'd known that ahead of time.

What are your general comments?

The Case interview was awesome!! It was my 7th interview and just when I started to feel jaded and bored about the whole process, Case managed to make things interesting. Dr. Kirby was a great interviewer.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
