The whole interview was very conversational. The most interesting question was probably when I was asked to describe the crazy people I would come in contact with while working one of my many entry level positions.

What was the most difficult question?

I was asked to explain a poor grade in a Physics class. The interviewer made a strong effort to make sure he wasn't ''grilling me'', and that he just needed something to go back to the committee with.

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Previous interviews, SDN feedback, school website.

What impressed you positively?

Very supportive atmosphere, lots of growth, lots of student involvement in how the school is run.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing, great school with tons of potential.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I was pretty prepared, so nothing during the interview really caught me off guard.

What are your general comments?

I thought I had performed very poorly, but was accepted about 4 weeks post interview. Going into the interview I wasn't too sure about the school, but after the interview and a later visit to St. Louis I was very impressed with both the school and the city. I will likely be matriculating here this fall.
