How did you prepare for the interview?

I quickly browsed the SDN forum, most specifically the interview thread. I also skimmed over healthcare-related books @ Barnes and Noble.

What impressed you positively?

The great faculty and student environment. Everyone was super nice! The student hosts were also fun to be around.

What impressed you negatively?

None. The Bronx is not scary at all. I was actually impressed by the area.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Just enjoy your time in NYC and don't over think the interview process. I wished I could've stayed for the special hospital tour, but my plane departed early.

What are your general comments?

Great school! Great faculty and student body. AECOM is my top choice. :)

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
