What impressed you positively?
Filo and the facilities in Temple especially the Simulation Center. They escorted you to your interview so you wouldn't get lost.
What impressed you negatively?
The first interviewer was 40 minutes behind schedule and was very abrasive during the interview. There was a lot of downtime at the end of the day in Temple.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
I wish I had known more about the new four year track in Temple.
What are your general comments?
It was a long day. We didn't see much of the College Station campus, but it didn't seem very impressive. Temple was much nicer, and I can now see why the drive is necessary. My first interviewer was unpleasant, but Filo and the other staff members made up for it.
