How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN forum, school's website, looked over my application, practiced answering common interview questions

What impressed you positively?

nothing really impressed me during the interview...a positive thing was that the interview questions were really easy

What impressed you negatively?

the interviewer never really asked me any questions that he formulated on his own (all the questions were just the ones he was supposed to ask)...he didn't seem genuinely interested in who I am or in my answers to the questions. It made me wonder if he had even read my essays or any part of my application. I also didn't like the fact that the interview was at a noisy coffee shop.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I had really over-prepared; the questions were really basic and easy.

What are your general comments?

the interview was at a coffee shop...he started with the questions right away. The interview was not like a conversation...the whole time I was answering questions, he was writing down what I said. After he asked me his questions, I had a short list of questions prepared about SGU that I asked him. At the end of the interview, he gave me the essay question to write. The whole interview was over in 30 minutes (a lot shorter than what I was expecting).

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
