What impressed you positively?

Facilities are beautiful. The location is great as well. Seems like it would be a lot of fun to go to school there.

What impressed you negatively?

Not too much really but just the fact that we had periods where we weren't doing anything. So I would say the downtime. It wasn't that bad though.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How big of a city Chicago is. Reminded me of NYC.

What are your general comments?

Overall I was very impressed with the school. The panel interview wasn't bad at all. It was interesting to see someone else be interviewed. We were interviewed by three people. When they were done asking questions we had a project to work on. It was kind of awkward at first doing the project with the interviewers staring at you and listening to everything you say but after a while I got used to it. It went well but it was definitely quite different from any other interview I had.
