How did you prepare for the interview?

I took part in a mock interview made available in the career center at my school (didn't help at all)

What impressed you positively?

The interviewers were very nice

What impressed you negatively?

Long time to hear if I was admitted or not

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Try to be ready for any question. Think of every single possible thing they can ask you and what your response will be.

What are your general comments?

Wear a suit, nothing else will suffice. Don't talk about partying while in the waiting area with the other people interviewing - people did this at my interview and it is beyond stupid, you never know who is listening to you. Find people who interviewed on a prior date and ask them the questions that the interviewers asked, I did this and knew 90% of what they were going to ask me.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Admission letters were sent out way after the date that the secretary told me.
