10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN forums, reading about the school online, practicing what I have said in previous interviews.

What impressed you positively?

The school was all new and quite impressive.

What impressed you negatively?

There aren't really too many places to study, but I don't know if this really matters or not. Also, the school is in a suburban - rural area.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That the interview was really laid back. I don't know if it was just my interviewers, but once the interview started, I was not stressed out at all. The interviewers were very laid back and exceptionally nice.

What are your general comments?

For me, one of the interviewers had read my file and the other one did not. Also, the school revolves around Problem based learning which means most of your learning is done on your own. Not a problem for me, I think, as I find lectures very boring. But be aware that the interview day at the school is really about whether or not problem based learning is for you.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
