How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, went over my secondary and AMCAS applications.

What impressed you positively?

The amount of support students receive from the staff, and counselors.

What impressed you negatively?

The school is on probation, and some of their facilities are less than satisfactory.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How confusing it would be to get there by subway. Make sure you arrive ahead of time! I left two and a half hours early, got lost, and made it 30 minutes before my interview.

What are your general comments?

Overall, it was positive. I think it is important to find out what your interviewers' style is, so that you can prepare. Ask some of the students around you, especially those who are students at Temple about your interviewer. It really helps!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
