10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Reviewed my application, read over some SDN info, thought up questions they might ask based on my personal info, and tried my best to RELAX.

What impressed you positively?

Everything-- I love the school, the facilities, the friendliness of the staff &amp; students....Several first-years hung out &amp; told us about their experiences, which was a nice perspective.

What impressed you negatively?

Single-digit wind chill temps + outdoor tour = :(

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing specific--the day went as I'd expected.

What are your general comments?

Some of the sidewalks were a bit icy, so dress appropriately (i.e., be careful in heels)! My boots had a wide heel, so I did OK.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

I've heard that some schools let interviewees sit in on a class--I'd love this!
