How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN interview feedback, read about school, and emailed students who were at university through their networking sheet.

What impressed you positively?

Facilities and technology that is incorporated into it. Also their average step 1 scores...15 points above the national average!!! Very impressive.

What impressed you negatively?

A lot of waiting around...just wish we would have had more a presentation by the admissions office, but this is a minor complaint considering they were very friendly and enthusiastic.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing

What are your general comments?

It went well. It lasted a lot longer then I thought. We did not get our second interviews until the afternoon and my second interviewer who I think was supposed to be replaced by another interviewer was kind of tired I think but overall it was very layed back and fun. Conversational. It was pretty fun.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
