How did you prepare for the interview?

read this site, other interviews... not much

What impressed you positively?

pass/fail, the lecture i sat in on was very enthusiastic (although the students were still asleep), international electives

What impressed you negatively?

they don't do anything to try and convince you to go there, there is little information given about the school, there are no admissions reps, and the location sucks. as a NYCer, I can say with complete sincerity that it is not in NYC for those of you who think it is. the facilities are pretty old.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

i pretty much knew there would be no folder/pen/nametag. it just took a while to settle in.

What are your general comments?

I showed up a bit before my interview and went to see the lecture that was going on. they had given me directions to my interview, which i followed. the interviewer took my file and basically read it while i was answering questions. it was a bit distracting. the interview was a bit wierd - he spoke far more than i did, and gave me a lot of info on the school that should have been presented in a formal way instead of taking over the interview. afterwards, i waited around with the other interviewees until we were told to go get lunch. the tour was after that, and it was extremely superficial (basically only the gym and student housing). then i went home.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
