How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, their website, reading journal articles. Its funny I read many articles about end of life and only one on abortion and I got asked a question about abortion.

What impressed you positively?

The school was really nice. The staff were very friendly towards us for they picked us up very early. The students were very nice and friendly, not to mention that all three were good looking. They were very enthused about their school and it was quite infectious.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing.

What are your general comments?

It was quite a very organized interview. So at first we got picked up from the hotel by admissions staff. Then we waited for a while in a room with other students. Then Ms. Carlton spoke about the school, osteopathy, etc. Then we had a tour with the students to the school and to CT. Then finally the interview. Fortunately, I got called in first and my interview only lasted for less than 30 minutes because I saw an applicant who was waiting for a long time to be called. When I was finished with the interview, the admissions staff brought us back to the hotel.
