✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

I suppose I shouldn't have been surprised since Brown has neither a graduate business school for collaboration nor a history of exposure to the greater academic community.

What impressed you positively?

I was very impressed with how nice and friendly everybody was. In fact, absolutely everything about Brown is "nice." I didn't meet a single person with an edge.

What impressed you negatively?

Certainly not the medical school for me but I enjoyed the visit and meeting all the nice folks. At least as much fun as the other Ivy visits (see my reports).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I didn't realize how isolated, academically and economicaly, Brown med school is.

What are your general comments?

Very nice.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
