⭐ Overall Impressions

How did the interview impress you?

Positively 🙂

What was the stress level of the interview?

5 out of 10
0 = Low Stress, 10 = High Stress

What are your general comments?

I arrived there a day before my interview, because I had no idea where the interview would be held, being that I have not been to Boston. We drove to the place like three times to make sure that we knew exactly how to get there without getting lost, since we were staying outside the city (less expensive). The whole day was pretty laid back. I have it a stress level of 5 because I didn't know what to expect, so I feared the worst. The interview came as soon as I had finished eating, so there was not ime to brush my teeth. The interviewer was super funny nand nice, but very professional in asking me "interview" type questions.
💬 Interview Process

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

What are your weaknesses, what are your strengths.

What was the most interesting question?

There was not one interesting question. I think they were all pretty much what I had expected. Now I applied one month before the deadline. I still got an interview, and have been accepted. So it is possible to apply late and be accepted!

How did you prepare for the interview?

I read this site, read many articles about interviews on the internet, their package that they sent in the mail, and I was just myself!

What was the most difficult question?

Not any one in particular

What impressed you positively?

How well organized they are during the whole day. The school is awesome...very clean, very new. I loved it!

What impressed you negatively?

Well, other than the tuition, and the cost of living in Boston....nothing. But we already knew that prior to going....this was just a reminder.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

We didn't need to rent a car....but it was still fun driving around and getting lost!
