How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN feedback...they were pretty much the same questions, so I was well prepared.

All of the current students and staff were very welcoming. Location of SOP.

What impressed you negatively?

Houston traffic

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Not to be as stressed out. I was stressed walking in, but I came out feeling very positive and welcome. Objectively, my academics were not very good except for my PCAT. My GPA was just a little over 3 and I had little extracurricular or volunteer experience. I went in a little intimidated by everyone else's GPA and other credentials. However, I think I was able to show my positive attributes throughout the day that could not be shown on paper. I landed an interview, so they must have seen something in me. I've received my acceptance letter and it's almost too good to be true! For those of you who are stressed out trying to get in, don't lose hope. If you've landed an interview, you've definitely got a fighting chance.

What are your general comments?

Very welcoming experience with little stress. Interview with Dr. Wallace was very pleasant. Writing prompt is pretty typical for interviews. The group activity wasn't very stressful and was kinda fun. Be an active team member! After talking to some current students, I got a very positive impression of UH.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
