What are your general comments?
Overall, my interview experience at Drexel was very positive. There was a small group of interviewers and we got to chat during the downtime. The dean is really friendly and gave a helpful presentation. The students seemed to really enjoy going to Drexel. The day ended pretty early (3pm) and would have ended earlier except we were waiting for one person to return from their interview.
