What impressed you positively?

The facilities are incredible. The faculty seemed to really be supportive of their students.

What impressed you negatively?

The sheer competitiveness and frankly, nerdiness of the students

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The interviews are very short, so you need to be straight to the point to say everything you would like to get in.

What are your general comments?

The school has incredible resources. Parkland was really interesting. The students were nice, but I didn't think they were all that social (I only had the chance to speak with a few, mind you). I don't think it is cutthroat as its reputation tends to support, but it is a very challenging curriculum and its students are competitive and among the most intelligent in the nation. Thus, you seem to have to learn to be comfortable being average, or possibly below average.
