How did you prepare for the interview?

sdn, mock interview with my friend, school website

What impressed you positively?

The faculty we met were super friendly and personable. Everyone was so happy there, even though finals were coming up! They have a realtor who helps you find an apartment or house, at no charge.

What impressed you negatively?

No food or drink allowed anywhere in the school except for the cafeteria.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No lectures in biochem, genetics, immunology, microbiology, neuroanatomy, pathology, physiology, or pharmacology. You are responsible for all these subjects on your own, and I took only three of those as an undergrad so it might be tough

What are your general comments?

I'm glad that this was my first interview. They make the stress level as low as possible. The two current students who ate lunch with us were informative and honest. The admissions staff is fun and helps make the experience easier.
