How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

5 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

I Bulleted out what I was going to say, reviewed what others had posted on SDN, practiced.

What impressed you positively?

Some of the questions were fun to answer.

What impressed you negatively?

Disappointed that I couldn't speak with faculty or student--hated the time restriction and the lack of human interaction. Felt like the interview did now let people know who I am. Also major technical difficulties and took a lot longer than the 20 minutes they said it would (due to technical difficulties and really long upload time between video responses).

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

Generally wish they would do away with this VITA style interview

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
