What impressed you positively?

The interviewers were SO nice and personable. It didn't even seem like an interview, it was so easy. The campus is beautiful and in a great part of Birmingham. They also let you know in 2 weeks after the interview which i though was really fast.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Make sure you have a couple of good questions to ask.

What are your general comments?

At my appointment, there were 2 of us. We were taken in for a quick briefing and then sent to 2 professors for 2 seperate 20 minute interviews. Then a student gave us a tour and then we had 2 short essay questions (1. which interview answer would you like to answer differently and 2. which interview question do you feel that you answered the best and why?). That was it. Very easy and stress free!
