I am sure there are other awesome students and interviewees who attended the previous interviews. But my experience today was very disappointing; so disappointing that I am considering other schools despite the fact that Western is close to home and I can transfer to a closer hospital branch that I currently work at. I believe educational environment is very important in college experience. The experience one gets at a prestigious four year university is incomparable to that of a community college. Having experiences in taking courses at both a prestigious school and a local community college, I can attest to the fact that Western felt like a community college that lacks professionalism and sincerity.

A hardship in my life

none, questions were pretty straight forward from the list.

If I was a leader of a group and two members were not getting along, what would I do?

Many of you may be wondering why the scores I have given for school is low. From my experience with other interviews, the professionalism seemed to be lacking in the students and the professor. At other interviews I have attended, the students volunteering to guide the interviewees were really enthusiastic informing the interviewees and answering questions; many actually tried to get to know the interviewees personally and treat each one as a potential future student that they would like to spend time with. Today, I saw many young individuals who looked professional in suits and skirts but acting immature. Many were busy talking to each other and seemed to be there to show off to the interviewees that they are young individuals that looked professional who have been accepted already. I did not sense the sincerity to help out in some students. I even received the same impression from the professor that interviewed me (She was young and attractive; nothing wrong with that but I felt that her effort was a little bit too much (dyed hair, lots of make up at 8 in the morning)). I wondered, if that was the impression that a sincere professor would want to make on potential students. I am a guy; I loved what I saw. But it just seemed that her effort was ill intended and out of place.

I have lived in both Southern and Northern California. The people are very different even within the same state. I may be biased but many at Western seemed the immature crowd that you would see in Southern California who cares so much about how they are judged by others (too self conscience).
