What impressed you positively?

I really liked minneapolis, it is a really nice city. I liked the facilities, they are a bit on the older side but they do a lot to make things feel homey--lots of little study nooks and cafes in the school itself. I really liked my interviewers, the students and my tour guide, everyone was very nice and down to earth.

What impressed you negatively?

I have to wait 2 months before I find out the result of my interview!

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There are lots of stairs and walking-heels suck :) Very thorough but nice tour.

What are your general comments?

Please speed up the turn around between interview and notification of result.
