💬 Interview Process
What was the most interesting question?
Have you ever faced any type of discrimination?
None were really difficult, they just want to talk to you to make sure you are personable and not some weirdo or anything. Everything they talk about has to do with you and your application, nothing out of the ordinary or out of nowhere.
How did you prepare for the interview?
SDN, AADSAS stuff, practiced answering questions on here.
What impressed you positively?
Very up to date facilities. Great central location in the city.
The presentation answered every single question I had and then some.
The new addition being built will be great for incoming classes.
What impressed you negatively?
Cost of living in enormous!
The huge class size would probably make getting assistance on projects etc tougher than at other schools.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
The length of the presentation took the whole time so make sure you fly out of boston at like 6pm so you have enough time to get around and handle anything you may need to get done.
Also, eat some breakfast before hand. Lunch is around 12ish, so if you get up early and get ready and what not and dont eat, you will probably have a growling stomach come lunch.
Eat fairly quick, the students and faculty take you out during lunch. Mine was closer to the end of lunch though.
