How did you prepare for the interview?

read SDN, talked to a friend that is a 2M at NW, read their website

What impressed you positively?

What was not to love about the school? The location is fantastic, the two deans who interacted with the interviewees were fabulous. We got to a mock PBL session, which was great so we could get a feel for how things were run at NW. The NW Memorial hospital is awesome as well...

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing..loved it!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How cold 20 degree weather feels!...yuck...but it would be worth it to go there!

What are your general comments?

It is a long day...got there at 7:30am and didn't leave til 4pm...and I was surprised that the group interview lasted 1h 15min, but the ono-on-one meeting with the dean was only 10-15min...thought the one-on-one would be longer...the students were great...we saw alot of the campus--some labs...lots of construction going on right now, but should be completed in april 2004.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
