How did you prepare for the interview?

I read up about the school on the internet and reviewed some typical practice interview questions. This helped alot!

What impressed you positively?

I talked to at least 6 students and everyone LOVED the school. They only had good things to say and they really were encouraging about how great it was, even with all the hard work. When students who are not involved in the interviewing process tell you such positive things about the school, then you know that they aren't just putting on a show. We had a tour of the hospital and I really liked the "feel" of the hospital too.

What impressed you negatively?

It seems that the religious undertones are very strong and might be overwhelming.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I had known that during the interview they bring everyone that is being interviewed into a room together with the deans of the school and everyone has to introduce themselves and say something interesting about themselves.

What are your general comments?

The interview goes very quick and everyone is very friendly and interested to talk to you.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
