How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN, read my application through, talked about questions found on SDN with my parents, read over online information about the school and program.

What impressed you positively?

the facility and the organization of the interview day.

What impressed you negatively?

the location-I have always lived in large cities, so it would be an adjustment.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That we were going to have to make a decision regarding which pathway we wanted on the spot. There was a presentation about PBL that was a pretty big reality check, so it threw me off a bit.

What are your general comments?

It would have been nice to have some more student interaction, especially with someone who could give us perspective on each pathway.
