How did you prepare for the interview?

I just read through all the interview questions posted on this site for U of H (all the questions they asked me were on this site). I also met with my pre-optometry advisor and she gave advice on etiquette, what to wear, etc...and then i prepared a few questions to ask the faculty and student during my interview.

What impressed you positively?

Dr. Shulman is really nice and easy to approach. The clinic in the school is top of the line.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing.

What are your general comments?

It started with a presentation, tour, then lunch, then interviews. The entire day is relaxed- nothing to stress about at all, not even the interview.
