How did you prepare for the interview?

Read over my essays, checked SDN, looked at Einstein's website.

What impressed you positively?

Students very happy, enthusiastic about Einstein. First year lecture hall is great, housing is pretty good. Kosher food in the cafeteria.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Remember to confirm your interview the day before! I forgot, and called the morning of the interview, but luckily it was all OK.

What are your general comments?

Arrived at the admissions office, picked up my sealed folder, went on the tour, had lunch. Then took the shuttle bus to Montefiore and walked to my interviewer's office, had my interview, which was pretty relaxed and casual. He read my file before I came in, but he definitely paid attention and asked me questions relating to it. He was very kind and encouraging. Overall a good experience. (It was my first interview, so I'm glad it was pretty calm.)
