✅ 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?

Looked over my application, current events, and different issues in the veterinary field.

What impressed you positively?

The majority of the questions were not very difficult, and they were based on my response to "tell me about yourself".

What impressed you negatively?

During the majority of the interview, one of the interviewers payed little to no attention to me as I was responding to questions. He/she was literally looking around the room as if very bored from my responses. I felt that this was rude and distracting, and this made me feel as though this person was not there in the interview for me. I was trying to keep eye contact with all interviewers during the interview, but I was unable to keep eye contact with the person looking all around the room while I was speaking.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I would have not stressed so much before the interview. It was not 'absolutely horrible' as I expected.

What are your general comments?

I feel as though the interview went well. It was not as stressful as I thought it would be. The only problem I had was with the one individual that made me feel unwelcome and very unimportant at many times during the interview. The other interviewers made me feel very comfortable during the entire interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
