How did you prepare for the interview?

sdn, some introspection

What impressed you positively?

beautiful student lounge and library, facilities are pretty fancy

What impressed you negatively?

the tour was very short, vandy didn't really seem like it was trying to sell itself, interviewees waited in the admissions office most of the day, there was way too much down time

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

the school seems to cater to ivy league students, i felt out of place coming from a state school

What are your general comments?

i think vandy expects you to be impressed with them because they're vandy. compared to other schools i've interviewed with, this school didn't do a hot job of showcasing their stuff and impressing me.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
