What impressed you positively?

Facilities are awesome.

What impressed you negatively?

I didn't really like that way the interviews were set up. It honestly felt like speed dating and made me and many other students relatively uncomfortable. Also, 2/4 interviewers were almost verging on terrible. One apparently acted like he was falling asleep during a colleague's interview the same day (apparently he does it to gauge your reaction... but really only looks like an inconsiderate ass), and another interview was about as dull as a butter knife and had absolutely no interpersonal skills.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

the interview format.

What are your general comments?

excellent facility with an excellent curriculum, but two of the interviewers really put a bad taste in my mouth. I mean, if those are the best individuals that the admissions committee has to sell their school to students, that really says something about their faculty makeup (in my opinion).

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

to scrutinize more heavily the individuals they choose to interview applicants. 2/4 interviewers were almost rude during the interview and were literally the only thing that put a bad taste in my mouth about the otherwise awesome school.
