How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, good night's sleep

What impressed you positively?

Freedom to choose where rotations are, high-tech classrooms

What impressed you negatively?

Didn't get to see much of the school since the dorrs were locked. Didn't get to sit in on a lecture. Too many people interviewing at once. Not very personal. Interview was scripted.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That Erie had 120 inches of snow last year. They said this with a straight face. Great if you like skiing, but I like it a little more temperate.

What are your general comments?

Not very friendly people. We didn't get to know anybody and the whole day was completely impersonal. The school is a little big for me. Lunch wasn't so great either. I just didn't feel very welcomed.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
