What was the most difficult question?

None. Some were worried about the essay question but it was simple. They just want to make sure that you are literate. My essay question was "What is a support structure and what role has it played in your life? (It was something along these lines).

What impressed you positively?

I enjoyed the company of the new Director of Admissions (Brian Hahn).

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

The interviewer did write notes or fill out the evaluations on the applicants during the interview. Because he went a bit over the time alotted he told the assistant dean that he would fill them out later. How is he supposed to remember what all five students said. Because of this I feel that this portion of the interview was a waste of time.
