💬 Interview Questions
What was the most difficult question?
None too difficult...i suppose one was a little iffy where he kept pressing me to elaborate on what were problems in healthcare specific to TX. Didn't seem too thrilled by my response, kept asking "anything else?"

What impressed you positively?
STUDENTS--by far the friendliest, most laid back, down-to-earth bunch I've seen. They are truly one of a kind and very into their class and school. I didn't run into one person who seemed unhappy/standoffish/dissatisfied. everyone loves their teachers, classes, and experience. i also like the safe suburban setting and low cost of living! GREAT school.
What impressed you negatively?
Second interviewer, somewhat. it was sort of embarrassing...i went to give him a handshake and we sort of missed thumbs. yikes. he just seemed nervous or unhappy for some reason--just didn't seem to gel all that well.
What are your general comments?
Overall, positive...got interviewed by a student and all of them are very nice. don't be intimidated by the "stress" interview--just hold your own. a lot of students i talked to felt they hadn't done that well in their interviews but still got in. there is definitely something special about san antonio, and it's going up high on my list :)
