What impressed you positively?

The shuttle from the metro to the campus.

What impressed you negatively?

The person I was to report to when I got to the school ignored me for about 5 minutes before getting to me, then told me to go to the wrong room and wait. After waiting I went back down and she blamed it on me and said that I must have been late. I finally got to my group and the facility was old and not as nice as others I have been in. Then the math exam that we were required to take was missing a page. And finally the interview was conducted by 2 faculty members at the same time which did not put me at ease at all. Overall it was a pretty sucky experience.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That there was going to be 2 faculty members interviewing me at the same time.

What are your general comments?

We had a presentation, a tour, then a essay to write (got to choose from about 6 different topics), then had a math exam (30 questions pretty basic stuff), and then had the interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
