How did you prepare for the interview?

Read SDN questions, practiced interviewing aloud with my parents, talked out difficult questions aloud in the car during my commute, drafted a response to the necessary question "Why do you want to be a vet?" which they didn't ask.

The time given to mingle with current students, ask questions, the Q and A panel, and the overall friendliness.

What impressed you negatively?

The facilities (hospital and anatomy lab) were outdated and disorganized. I was very unimpressed that the hallways were lined with objects clearly out of place, that personal water bottles and dog bones were strewn about the hospital. Overall very disappointed with this school that supposedly has such a high reputation.
