How did you prepare for the interview?

Reading school's website and SDN

What impressed you positively?

Affordability and convenience of housing. Gym membership included. Students seemed happy. Closer to Manhattan than I had originally thought.

What impressed you negatively?

Location was dismal, facilities were old and dilapidated with the exception of one new lecture hall for 1st year students. No presentation from administration at all. Left interview knowing hardly more about the school then prior to the interview.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Applicants won't be notified until 1/15 at the earliest of decisions. I would have scheduled my interview later to try to group it with others.

What are your general comments?

Overall, I wasn't very impressed by the experience. The school seemed fine, and it would be nice to be in New York, but I didn't learn much about research opportunities, match possiblities, clinical training, or really find out much about the program at all.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Have someone from the administration present to students and perhaps give a packet or something with
