What impressed you positively?

My first interview, the students and the presentation by the ER doc

My second interview, the dooming financial aid presentation

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

what the heck they meant by "a scientific discovery" I had made when I am not a researcher or Marie Curie.

What are your general comments?

SUPER impressive campus, and, other than the robotic 2nd interviewer and the cost of OOS tuition, would have been top choice.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Don't scare the crap out of the OOS applicants in the last 5 minutes of the day. Try to end on a positive note.
