What impressed you positively?

The location is pretty nice. Away from the city but not too far away.

What impressed you negatively?

My interviewer, who didn't take one glance before and during the interview at my file. He was constantly distracted with his computer or yelling to people who kept walking by his office. His inability to answer any of my questions except to tell me to go ask other people such as the dental students, financial aid office person, etc. He made no effort to listen to what I was saying and half the time he wasn't even facing me, not to mention making eye contact. He was staring at the computer screen the whole time.
