💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

My interview did not seem to have read my application. All the questions were very general...not tricky...even border line tricky. However, it thought it was incredibly unprofessional to not know anything about the applicant. She asked at one point, "Do you play a musical instrument?" No! Is there anything in my application that indicates that? It's hard to shine when the questions are so generic.

How did you prepare for the interview?

Mock interviews, read this sight, read up on the school, and talked to a friend at Rosalind.

What impressed you positively?

The great board scores.

What impressed you negatively?

The disorganization of the day. My second interview was the last in the group and the interview said he did not have enough time to review my file. The interview was only 15 minutes because he needed to have me back by lunch. I told him I didn't mind missing lunch, but he said he had to get me back.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing.

What are your general comments?

Most people seem to really do well here academically but its not a place where I could enjoy myself socially.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

The day I went to interview, the individual who was supposed to talk about the University was sick.
