What impressed you negatively?

seemed like students didn't want to live in hyde park and thus move all over the city. one thing i liked at some of the other schools i visited was that everyone lived in the same area and hung out a lot.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

this was my first interview so i was a bit nervous. they aren't tough interviews, but i suggest trying to schedule a school you are less interested in attending before going to a top choice like this was for me.

What are your general comments?

three interviews, one faculty, one student, one admissions officer. i knew a lot about the school going in, so wasn't really wowed by anything in particular. the other interviewees were really, really qualified and really interesting too, so it was fun to talk to them.
