How did you prepare for the interview?

Read their website, reviewed my application.

What impressed you positively?

The campus was amazing, the students seemed relaxed and happy, the boys were way cuter then the ones in nyc. The med school recently privatized and they now have a lot of money from alums coming in and have built a huge new research building.

What impressed you negatively?

The interviews were short abrubt and I felt like they went badly. But I got in anyway. I sort of felt like they had already decided about whether I would be accepted and just wanted to make sure I wasn't a nut.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Other people talked about the dessert. It was good but don't eat too much because you have to walk around afterwards.

What are your general comments?

The tour and medical school was fabulous. The interviews were rocky but seemed not to matter.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
