✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Not much. Just went over basic questions in my head (Why do you want to be a vet? Why did you pick Ohio State? etc.) Probably should have prepared more for the specific veterinary questions, though I don't know how I could have because they asked me questions from courses I took years ago.

What impressed you positively?

The ease of transportation around the campus and the nice facilities.

What impressed you negatively?

The tour guides weren't the best. I wish they would have given us more info.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Wear comfortable shoes for the tour.

What are your general comments?

It was me and two 70-something retired vets. I felt pretty grilled the whole time, though I did get a few ''good answer'' from them. As I said before they must have looked over my transcript and asked me about stuff they thought I learned in my classes. A few times I had to say ''honestly I don't know that answer, I never learned that''. I felt it was really an unfair interview because of all the really specific questions asked. There was no way to study for it because I couldn't study ALL of my old course material.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
