What are your general comments?

The interview day started at 8AM. There were presentations on PBL. Then they gave us a short article to read and told us they would ask us to summarize it during the interview. Dr White kept us entertained for most of the day and talked about the school, the town, the various pathways, and had everyone introduce themselves. There was also a financial aid presentation. During this time People were taken to their interviews. Most panels had two interviewers to one interviewee and one panel had three interviewers to one interviewee. Once everyone had interviewed they asked us to rank our pathway preferences. Then we went to Lunch where two students answered our questions. Following lunch, one of the students gave us a tour of the facilities. She was very informative. The day ended at 1 PM.
