✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

10 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read the school's website. Hadn't heard of the SDN feedback site at this point.

What impressed you positively?

The faculty seems to really care a lot about the happiness and well-being of their students. The students seemed to be happy and relatively laid back.

What impressed you negatively?

Not a whole lot impressed me negatively. The location is a bit far from Manhattan but it's not that bad...probably like 35 minutes out of parts you'd want to go to. It's med school, so I imagine the only trips I'll take anyway are to the library!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

They warn you about this, but be prepared to possibly have to take a shuttle to your interview.

What are your general comments?

I was really impressed. People seemed genuinely nice and I'd be excited to go here.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

I thought they were really nice.
