How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, reviewed my research,

What impressed you positively?

The faculty is absolutely awesome. They are very professional, but also very caring and nice. They put you at ease very quickly.

What impressed you negatively?

The surrounding area is very upscale and high end. Finding an affordable place to stay will require a commute

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That it will be hard to find an affordable place to stay and that Bradenton is primarily filled with retiree's. I also wish I knew how laid back the interview was going to be. I would say stop studying/worrying and just be yourself--but I know nobody will listen. hehe

What are your general comments?

2 on 1 panel. The Ph.C was really nice and directed all of his questions towards me. The DO just sat at the edge of the desk and joted his notes, he never really smiled. They also gave us 10 minutes to read an article before our interview and asked us to summarize it during the interview. It's a really easy read with a few numbers to remember. I want to point out that I don't think that I did poorly of my interview, but the questions seemed awkward and didn't let me give a spectacular answer.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
