9 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

9 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, reviewed application, researched about island/history, reviewed Ross website, mock interview

What impressed you positively?

nothing unfortunately. i guess the fact the interview was so close to home.

What impressed you negatively?

my interviewer appeared to be not much older than myself and had little to no medical or science background, which was expected after reading some of the other feedbacks but she clearly didn't review my application and got the feeling she wasn't even listening during the actual interview making the whole process very awkward.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

unsettling. felt the interviewer was so detached. all the questions were so general. felt she was so uninterested, if anyone from Ross comes across this, whether the interviewer is actually employed through your university or not, during the interview they are representing your institution and if she seems uninterested it can make the applicant feel Ross is uninterested. honestly afterwards felt like ''what was the point of that?'' but we'll see, was told it would be approx. 2 weeks to hear back.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

please see previous comment regarding your interviewers.
