How did you prepare for the interview?

Reading my AADSAS application, SDN, asking friends at NYU, mock interview with my boyfriend

What impressed you positively?

They seem very organize despite the craziness of everything going on. Dr. Mejia had to go to a conference but wouldnt want to leave until she felt she left everything organized. I am very greatfull that I was allowed to bring my boyfriend and aunt along for the tour. :)

What impressed you negatively?

No responses

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Dr. Mejia made a comment about letting people on SDN know (especially girls) that they should wear comfortable shoes because there is a lot of walking around the different clinics, up and down the stairs, etc.

What are your general comments?

NYU is a great school despite the bad rumors on SDN. People should take everything they read here like a grain of salt and see it for themselves. I loved the school, the faculty, and what I was able to learn about the curriculum and stuff. I would go to NYU without a doubt if I get accepted! :)

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Keep up the good work! Dr. Mejia is great!
