💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

Tell me about yourself...

What was the most interesting question?

Questions about my research. The long length led to some of the more interesting questions I've ever been asked along the way, asking about different ways to approach my research/how I would expand upon it.

How did you prepare for the interview?

Went to all of the ones before this one

What was the most difficult question?

Nothing overly difficult.

What impressed you positively?

Research. Although there aren't as many faculty members here as there are at many other schools, the quality is outstanding across the board. Also their focus on integrative approaches to Research and BioX. Also, the weather might be impossible to beat.

What impressed you negatively?

The program is pretty relaxed, a little too much for my tastes.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There are no required research rotations.
