My goal with you today is to determine whether or not you're an axe murderer and whether or not I'd trust you with my 3 year-old child...so what do you want to talk about?

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

The facilities were incredible, but not as incredible as the curriculum. I'm a procrastinator, so I think the weekly quizzes with the flex time would really work well for me (and anyone else with a similar problem). The students were all really cool and the learning environment wasn't competitive at all.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

It was already pretty cold on the day of my interview (in September!), and it was especially cold the night before my interview.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The students are really cool and laid back. I wish I would have scheduled more time to stay in Ann Arbor to hang out with the students.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

I was surprised by how relaxed my interviews were. The faculty I talked to made jokes and were genuinely interested in finding out more about me as a person. The interview day is packed with information and was the best structured out of all my interviews thus far.
