✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

9 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

8 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed secondaries (wasn't really helpful or asked about); reviewed SDN; prepped for the general interview questions.

What impressed you positively?

Really nice facilities, essentially brand new looking. Board scores, match rate and match schools were very good.

What impressed you negatively?

A lot of things actually. People may think this is "nit picking" but few or no other schools do the following things: You were professional attire to class everyday (..."I went to catholic school all my life, you get used to it." ...No, f you. I don't want to learn pharm or biochem with a tie strangling me all day) ; You pick a seat in lecture the first day of class before you know anyone else, and that is your assigned seat...FOR THE NEXT 2 YEARS. There is absolutely nothing to do around campus, unless you enjoy picking tobacco.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really.

What are your general comments?

Very good school in terms of scores and whatnot, but after hearing all their weird rules and seeing the area myself I decided not to go there. I'm not a huge city person, but this was rural rural.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

N/A.
