Nothing, I was extremely happy with my experience.

How many applicants would be interviewing on the day I interviewed, not that it would have changed anything.

I was really pleased with everything. Dr. Arnold, Dr. Kennedy, Mrs. Hatcher, as well as everyone else were extremely friendly and made the entire experience memorable and not as nerve-wrecking as I had pictured it to be.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

None, I thought everyone was extremely friendly and accomodating.
