How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN feedback, read AMCAS and secondary, was myself.

What impressed you positively?

The Loyola effect. Students are all very friendly and nice and seem genuinely happy to be there. Beautiful facilities (including the gym, though I would never select a school because of that). Professor came to sit with us at lunch and was very candid.

What impressed you negatively?

No information about the school given in the form of a seminar/presentation. Library is rough but I don't really use libraries.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Day is fairly unscheduled, you will find your interviewers at their office or clinic and must hope to make it in time.

What are your general comments?

No responses

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Some sort of information session about the school to try to "sell it" for students.
