How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

sdn, prepping with articles on health care reform, my essays (which my interviewer drew many of his questions from)

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

Facilities and location- I am from the area but had no idea how new the facilities are and there really is a campus to this large university.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

Parking. I had to pay 11 bucks for six hours of parking! Try to get a ride if you can. Otherwise, I have no complaints about this outstanding institution!! (besides that i'll have to take biochem this summer if i get in :( )

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I was a little stressed because my last interviews had gone well, but I was waitlisted at both. I wanted to make a good impression because it's my state school, and so many things about it are appealing: amazing facilities and opportunities, cheap tuition (not compared to other instate rates, rather to private schools), nice students, and close to my family! As someone mentioned before, they do take half the people they interview - so relax! If I had to do it again, I would be a little more solid with stuff on my resume. Oh, and make sure you are pretty comfortable talking about current health issues.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

Very positive- my interviewer made me feel like we were old friends, looking back I think maybe it was TOO comfortable... but at the end he told me he liked me and was going to write me a good review.
