SDN, reviewing application/statement, researching osteopathy

What impressed you positively?

campus, faculty involvement in student success, anatomy dept., board scores

What impressed you negatively?

Interview process didn't seem very effective in getting to know candidates. It felt like a 35 minute game. Students who had lunch with us and guided our tour probably know us better than the interview panel.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing stands out.

What are your general comments?

Good overall, but that is what all the candidates said afterwards. Since they are only accepting ~30% in this round, I have no idea where I stand.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
