How did you prepare for the interview?

This website, Yale website, asking questions to Yale students during lunch

What impressed you positively?

I loved the students I met! Most were first year and second year students, but they all seemed very involved both in their classes and in their extracurriculars. They stressed that faculty are very responsive to student feedback.

What impressed you negatively?

Only my worry that I won't get in!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The undergrad campus is beautiful- everyone who interviews should make a point to see it just to take in the gothic architecture. New Haven seems like a nice place to live- great restaurants, fun bars, and all sorts of theater/art/music events.

What are your general comments?

I felt nervous, because Yale is my top choice school. I really want a school that will let me continue to be a person, not just a student, and it seems like Yale is the ideal place to do so.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
