How did you prepare for the interview?

Read my personal statement, and the ethics site poseted on SDN under useful links.

What impressed you positively?

The director of admissions was great with switching around schedules that got all messed up due to the snow storm the day before.

What impressed you negatively?

They were trying a new method of giving the tour. There were supposed to be M2s to give the tour of the new campus, but they didn't show up.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

I ended up really late due to the snow. Don't underestimate the stupidity of Denver drivers who can't drive in the snow, and leave early. One of my interviewers was really laid back, we had a great conversation. The other one grilled me for half an hour, i had 4-5 ethical questions asked.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
