What impressed you positively?

The school is very nice; the labs are beautiful; people are very nice too. Students were very open. I spent an hour at biochem. class where many students were talking to me and giving good advice about the future interview. Lunch with student was very interesting. I found out a lot of useful info from the student I spent lunch with. Some of this information I used during the interview. Also, the faculty is very friendly and helpful.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

Some students were disrespectful towards the professors. I've heard students talking and even laughing loud while the teacher was explaning something. It was very strange, but most of the students were quite respectful.

I wish I knew that I had to write a short answer for question. Also, I wish I knew that people their are so friendly, I would not worry about the interview at all.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

My interview was scheduled in the afternoon, so I had my observations, lunch with a student, and visiting class before the interview. It was better that way because during the hours interracting with students and faculty I realized that they are friendly and nice and the purpose of my interview is not to test my intelegence or find a reason not to accept me, but just to meet me and find out more about my personality. It helped to reduce stress before the interview. I saw that people in the admission office are very busy, but they tried to do their best to assist us.
