Something along the lines of what would you do if a physician writes himself a script for valium and you suspect he is abusing the medication?

Researched the school and learned everything about it

What was the most difficult question?

none

What impressed you positively?

UT has alot of resources, ie. library, computers..etc

What impressed you negatively?

How long they took to tell me I was accepted. It doesn't take 3, almost 4 months, to hand out decisions. They need to get more organized and stop making excuses just because they didn't expect the # of applicants for this fall. Practically every school in the nation experienced the same increase and they still managed to work efficiently.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How overrated the program is. I know some people who were accepted to the program that should NOT have been, and I know others who were denied who should have been accepted. UT is a good school, but the way they treat their applicants definitely sealed my decision to go out-of-state.
