How did you prepare for the interview?

1-read interview feedback, Primary and Sec applications, UVA health system website, &quot;31 questions I wish I'd asked&quot; packet. 2-Prayed.

What impressed you positively?

Southern hospitality. UVA knows how to treat its interviewees. Great food, I really like Charlottesville. They put the interview at the end of the day, which is great, because your nerves are a little relaxed at that point, and you'll really know if you want to go here or not by then.

What impressed you negatively?

The tour wasn't as great as I'd like it to have been. The students weren't prepared, I felt.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How much chocolate they offer. I would have brought a bag to stuff with chocolate...

What are your general comments?

A great school and a very well organized interview process.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

The people who toured us, weren't really that prepared. I feel like we were just led around based on
