How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

10 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

practicing about 30 questions taken from lists from the internet about 20 times over 2 weeks, filming myself, etc.

What impressed you positively?

very familiar with my personal statement and secondary. professional.

What impressed you negatively?

flat affect. didn't enjoy the heavy debating, but i understand some schools like to test potential students to see how they handle being questioned and defending their positions, but it still left me feeling a little deflated and less welcome by the school.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

that i would face so much debating and healthcare policy questions. it wasn't consistent with my experience with faculty and admissions staff at all, so it was a little whiplash-y.

What are your general comments?

i still really like this school and hope my attitude and emotions get better in the coming weeks and would still be ecstatic to get an A. very good videos and presentations leading up to the interview. well organized.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
