✅ Interview Preparation and Impressions

How is the friendliness of the admissions office?

No responses

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

SD.net feedback for ideas. Other than that, nothing really.

What impressed you positively?

The interview was so informal. Out of a sheet of ?'s only 3 were asked. Most was just interpersonal conversation about unrelated stuff.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing really.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Maybe I missed it, but my interview request didnt mention who I should check in with. Everyone showed up with nametags and I'm sticking out like a sore thumb. Probably missed a tour as well as I never took one and one wasn't offered.

What are your general comments?

It was enjoyable. New feature this year was a group dynamics exercise where 3 groups of 4 were given a situation and 15 minutes to discuss the situation. Then we had to present our STAR analysis of the situation.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
