What impressed you positively?

The school is really nice. Everything is really new. The other interview candidates were all extremely nice! The whole atmosphere was friendly, no sense of competitiveness.

What impressed you negatively?

My interview was extremely uncomfortable! She made me feel so awkward, which escalated my nervousness. She would ask me a question and after I finished with my answer, she kept staring at me without saying anything. I couldn't tell if I should keep talking because my answer wasn't good enough or something. After it was clear I was finished, she would then say Ok! and move on to the next question. No input or any kind of recognition that she even took in anything that I said. I couldn't wait to leave the interview because it felt so awkward. Also, the area is shadyyyyyyyy! I was walking alone to get some food at 8pm across the street from my hotel and some stranger woman pulls up next to me and asks if I need a ride! She was very persistent about it, too! So either she really wanted to kidnap me or she was a good Samaritan who was really really concern for my well being 0_0 Ultimately, not a very good impression of the city.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

What are your general comments?

The school is really nice but the interview process was way too long. After the interview, we had to do one last group exercise. By that point, I was mentally drained and I just wanted to go home and the group exercise was so pointless.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
