What impressed you positively?

The student ambassadors were very friendly and did their best to make us feel comfortable and relaxed. The staff were also very friendly, and not intimidating or over-bearing.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing, I was very impressed with the school, the program, and the people.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I wish I had known that they would ask me questions only related specifically to my experience and my work, not trick questions about other animal experience that I do not have. Knowing it would be questions that I already knew the answer to would have helped me relax.
