How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN

What impressed you positively?

Facilities are heads above the rest; community environment--students helping students; away from city of Chicago--few distractions the first tough two years; student dorms that are very nice.

What impressed you negatively?

Sitting in the reception are of the admissions office for 1-1.5 hours with nine or ten other candidates; a conference room where we could all wait would have been nice.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Day runs longer than the 1:30 pm time they promised; get the impression that happens quite a bit b/c not enough interviewers.

What are your general comments?

Excellent; I cannot say enough about the facilities. The histology slides are all computerized (no more microscopes); library is spacious with plenty of quiet space. Students seemed to be pleased with their decision to attend CMS. Very pleasant faculty representatives, who appeared to have a genuine interest in the candidates. The dean made a point to come and introduce himself individually to each of the candidates.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
