What are your general comments?

Overall I thought it was a good interview process but I did get the feeling that the process as a whole is a little bit disorganized beginning with the long speech from the secretary about how she is a one-person team. Also, it would have been nice to have a clearer idea of when we would have some time of decision (yes, no, waitlist) from the admissions committee. The secretary said it could be a few weeks or a few months from now, depending on when the admissions committee meets next. The math test was really easy and there was plenty of time given. The test was on basic math, roman numerals, word problems, like 1 derivative and 2 or 3 integrals. But the 4th year students were really nice and seemed like they had little to no complaints about their experience at Howard.
