✅ 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?

read about school. Was pretty nervous because at the time I still hadn't had any acceptances.

What impressed you positively?

Personal attention (never got any as an undergrad), diversity of students interviewing.

What impressed you negatively?

Facilities seemed a little run-down. Also finding my way around was impossible, but once you spend enough time there it's manageable.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

OK overall. I got a cardiologist who was really down-to-earth, definitely the kind of guy you'd want to have a beer with. Then I got a retired endocrinologist who was kind of a tough interviewer, which I actually appreciated. I was accepted a few weeks later and initially enrolled, but eventually decided to attend elsewhere.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
