How did you prepare for the interview?

looked over the school's DVD, SDN website, all my application materials, the school's website, some major topics in ethics, and mock interview.

What impressed you positively?

the people--students, faculty and admissions staff, they all seemed vey nice and supportive, and willing to go out of their way to help the students. i also liked the curicullum, and the hospital---it is amazing.

What impressed you negatively?

having to wait at the airport for a long time (about 4 hours) for the shuttle to take me to the Hanover.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

It might be a good idea to somehow get the shuttle schedule, and book your flight around that.

What are your general comments?

I had a great experience and i really liked the place. The students are nice and they seemed pretty happy there. There were two interviews, both were pretty conversational. One was given by a student, and the other, by a faculty member. Both interviewers were members of the adcom, and i thought that was cool too. Overall the school is cool and pretty laid back.
