How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, website, thought a lot about typical q's and a's

What impressed you positively?

Everything- small school, very close knit,PBL, everyone is SO friendly

What impressed you negatively?

Not much really

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

More "general" questions for the admissions director- he will meet with everyone as a group first

What are your general comments?

Very easy going- first meet with dean of admissions, meet with 2nd year students, interview, lunch with students, interview, go home. One of my interviewers really got going on some strange questions, but I know that I did fine. Just answer all questions very honestly and remember there are tons of "right" answers. Sometimes I think they just like to see you squirm a bit and see how you react.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
