How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Looked over my AMCAS app.

What impressed you positively?

Location. I like that the student is isolated from the city and next to a hospital. (I don't care much for the city life)

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That I went during spring break (I really wanted to stay with a host to talk about the school).

What are your general comments?

One on one with a professor. She was really friendly. Good interviewer. She didn't know anything about me. I wish she had read my personal statement. But I understand that the point is to see how you present yourself(first impressions are important).

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
