No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Read my application, some commonly asked questions and looked at studentdoctor.net.

What impressed you positively?

Everything! The students have an amazing comraderie and everyone knows everyone. The staff is friendly and the facilities are top notch. The day is very well planned and organized.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

The parking garage they told me to park at was full, so I had to park farther away, which took more time.

What are your general comments?

I went to UF for undergrad, so I was somewhat familiar with the facilities. Everything about the day is quite impressive. You have a great opportunity to meet many of the current students. I was also impressed by the faculty and their commitment to the student body. Be prepared for a long day, but try to relax. My interviews were very conversational. Another thing to note, they instruct the interviewers to make it a partially open file interview (AKA don't look at grades and test scores, but look at everything else). One of my interviewers followed that policy. The other just made it a closed file interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
