How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

6 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

I had a mock interview, attended a pre-interview workshop with one of the interviewers, read SDN, and spoke with people who had already interviewed.

What impressed you positively?

The school itself, the friendliness of all of the faculty and staff, and the efficiency of the interviews.

What impressed you negatively?

I was disappointed that I wasn't one of the people who could come out of the interview saying "that was fun, it was just like a conversation, I was comfortable." I actually felt pretty weak about my interview coming out.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That just because your interviewers don't give you positive feedback doesn't mean you didn't do a good job!

What are your general comments?

All in all it was a good experience!

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
