How did you prepare for the interview?

WSU website... the usual.

What impressed you positively?

The vast amount of info. that the school puts on the web and CD-R. Lots of quizzes and extra helpful graphs and charts, etc. Friendly students.

What impressed you negatively?

The campus... no pizzazz (and yes, that is the correct spelling of that word). Maybe it was the rainy day that made it feel so blah, but the buildings are nothing to brag about. Sort of dated facilities.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The school is rather geared toward churning out primary care physicians that will be practicing in this area of Ohio. Interviewers will ask questions to ensure that these are your goals.

What are your general comments?

Overall, the day was nice. The lunch and tour by students was very informative and we were able to sit in on a class. The staff and faculty know students by their first names - very personal. Wright State is NOT known for research. Don't come here if your interests lie in research.
