SDN, school's website, visited school a while ago, read CDA, JADA, etc.

the clean/new clinics and preclinical labs, on the UCLA campus, food court nearby, etc.
What impressed you negatively?
nothing - just that you didn't get the private school treatment (free food, drinks, etc.)
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
I got to the school on time but if you are traveling to UCLA, make sure you leave plenty of time to get there. I left 2 hours before my interview and I barely made it. The essay writing is first so if you're late, well...write fast.
