How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

How did you prepare for the interview?

Searched online for questions and answered them, prepared my opening statement vocally, videotaped myself, practiced with friends, etc.

What impressed you positively?

The interview panel was extremely nice and energetic. I was beyond nervous, and they had a way of calming me down tremendously. LSU SVM finally designated a room for applicants to wait and meet with other applicants and current, veterinary students before the interview. I found that this room definitely helped ease the stress!

What impressed you negatively?

My panel seemed a bit rushed. They kept looking at the clock in between questions. I found this a little irritating since my interview began ten minutes late; I wanted to get my image across as fully as possible.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I should have relaxed all week instead of over-preparing for these twenty minutes.

What are your general comments?

Twenty minutes may feel like a long time, but trust me, time flies when you are being interviewed. The process felt like two minutes.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
