What impressed you positively?

Clinical Skills Center on the 6th floor is the school's pride and joy. It provides great clinical simulation experience. Also, the curriculum is a good mix of different learning methods.

What impressed you negatively?

Second interviewer was late because he came by, but my first interview was still in progress. I ended up staying there the longest. Also, he went a bit overboard on the healthcare issue. He then said, "Guess you didn't expect this kind of interview, huh?" Well, I didn't because I was told they'd be relaxed, but I admit it was pretty engaging.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The school does offer some scholarships to about 33% of the class.

What are your general comments?

Overall, the student interview was really nice and relaxed. She just wanted to understand me better as a person, which was great. On the other hand, once they find out your interests, be prepared to talk about it intelligently.
