How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

8 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN site, wrote down key points I wanted to hit during the interview, that's all.

What impressed you positively?

Awesome board scores and passing rates. New facility. How intelligent the second year students were. How happy students were.

What impressed you negatively?

While it is NOT in the middle of nowhere... it is a less than I'm used to. Still plenty to do though.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Just know that they will have you read an article (a page or two) in five minutes and then ask you a question about it during the interview. Dont get nervous about it...just know the basics.

What are your general comments?

Great school doing some really good things. Understand that this school is not one to get by in. The students put a lot of time and effort into their studying and that's WHY they have such great scores. Most students I talked to study between 6-10 hrs/day out of class.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Very nice people. Well organized throughout the day.
