What impressed you positively?

SBL or PBL, the prof teaching the class I sat in on, lunch at the general lewis was really good.. best cheeseburger and fries I've had in a lonnng time

What impressed you negatively?

The campus was dark and dingy, inside of the buildings run down. school is WAY too expensive and the low cost of living in WV does not make up for it, they're taking on twice as many students this year and don't know where they are going to put them in class or in housing... nothing was thought out in detail about how they're going to accomidate these new students, the anatomy lab was poorrrrrly ventilated

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

that the general lewis was haunted =0 Me and another interviewee were sitting in the lounge at 1 am talking and the lights went out and the fireplace turned on and then 3 seconds later things went back to normal! We freaked out.

What are your general comments?

Went in and they were very nice, interview was SO relaxed and I couldn't tell how I did because they pretty much wanted you to talk. I guess I did OK because I got in. It was very very laid back. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE QUESTIONS FOR THEM!!! At the end they want you to ask some, so come prepared.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
