What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

There was a presentation about the program, and then a Finaid presentation followed by the short quiz and essay. After that were the interview sessions, which were staggered. After everyone had interviewed, the group exercise was held. I only had one interviewer (faculty member), but some other interviewees had two (faculty + student). It seemed as though having two interviewers made for a more difficult interview, so I was glad I only had the one. Also, during the waiting period a few current students went around and answered any questions people had.
