How did you prepare for the interview?

No responses

What impressed you positively?

The facilities are nice and new.

What impressed you negatively?

No board scores. No curriculum presentation. Obed giving a speech on how to impress the interviewers. It was unprofessional and unnecessary. Should've been replaced with a formal presentation of the school. Did not enjoy that they ran behind schedule as well, including a long cheesy speech by the Dean of Students. The unprofessionalism of the student tour guides.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

What Harlem was REALLY like.

What are your general comments?

Overall, I did not like this school. I was initially enticed by the mission of the school, the diversity of the area, the new facilities and was willing to give it a shot. But I did not like the area as much as I thought, I did not like the interviewers, I did not like the cost. I left knowing nothing about the school and unimpressed. They were not very accommodating. Other schools I have been to have been much more professional and accommodating to your visit. And I would leave knowing much more about the school - I don't know any more about Touro than I did before I got there except that I don't like it. It's not worth the money.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Formal presentation about the school. Selling the school's strengths and making us want to go there.
