Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The campus staff (the people who work in the admissions office) are one of the most friendly people I have ever found at any school. Really sweet people.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The people who interview me. They are assholes. They never tried to understand me and always tried to contradict my answers. I usually don't criticize people but these people were least interesting. One of them was a Phd (he was dressed in jeans) and other was a DO (he was dressed in suit which wasn't iron).What the hell was that, if they want us to dress well they better atleast wear something professional. I wouldn't have care much about their dressing if they were sweet people, but they were assholes all the time during the interview.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The admission staff at western is the best. The campus is OK. Nothing impressive. It has more of the look of a community college than a university. But it doesn't matter if you want to become a doctor.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

The worst part of the interview was the people who interviewed me. They were not at all nice. There wasn't much student interaction but the student who gave campus tour answered all our questions.
