No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Looked at CNN.com for current events, read over my application, read over my personal statement, answered questions posted from previous years.

What impressed you positively?

The interviewers were very friendly and easy to talk to. The coversation flowed naturally and the time passed quickly.

What impressed you negatively?

One of the three interviewers did not smile or give me any indication that I ever answered a question to his satisfaction.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That I wouldn't really be expected to know specific facts or diseases.

What are your general comments?

It was a really laid back experience. You go to a room and sign in and write down the address you want your acceptance/rejection sent to. Then you have your picture taken and someone is there to show you the Toshiba Tablet computer that you would get as a vet student. There are cookies and pop avaiable. Then you wait until it is your time to interview when you are led by a vet student to the interview room. I was interviewed by 2 KSU faculty members and 1 practicing Kansas Veterinarian. Then an optional student led tour was given.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
