Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

Students and staff were super welcoming and friendly. My interviewer was also incredibly nice. The student housing is amazing! It's right across the street from the school, very large, and super cheap.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The Bronx. Also, the school, hospitals, etc. are really spread out and the shuttle between is rather unpleasant.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The open vs. closed file issue was a little ambiguous. I went in thinking the interviews were open, but when I arrived, admissions handed me a packet with all my information in it to give my interviewer. She said the interviews were blind. But THEN when I got to my interview, the receptionist took my information to the interviewer, and I waited outside the office for about twenty minutes while he read over everything. If I had known this I would have arrived to the interview much earlier than I did. Also, I wish I had known how wonderful and relaxed my interviewer would be...it would have saved me a lot of stress :)
