✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, went over my application/research papers, other interviews

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are extremely nice. They work (perhaps a little too) hard to try to wow you with the technology the students get to use. The faculty seem to love having the students around and are really welcoming.

What impressed you negatively?

I would say the weather or the area but I'm from Cleveland so I'm biased not to mind either

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I spent a lot of time preparing to explain my research--and my interviewer asked nothing about it! (although they usually do)

What are your general comments?

LONG interview day including several tours and two full-hour interviews. An MD typically interviews you to evaluate your goals and motivations and how well you would "fit" into the school; a PhD typically asks to you explain your research and evaluates your understanding of it.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

No responses
