What impressed you negatively?
COST (all loans are unsubsidized, which leaves a graduate 600k in debt - according to the financial session). organization - I felt very uninformed and lost. lack of personal interview. Seemingly ubiquitous discontent among students for lack of patients to treat and chairs to use.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
I still don't know!
What are your general comments?
Honestly, I have no idea how they selected me over other applicants. I feel like I sent them my AADSAS and that's it. Given my late interview date, I am not sure how they took the time to consider my supplemental app before accepting me. Everybody was happy, but few were friendly. I can honestly say I have no idea what the interview/pbl session was for - the whole day seemed worthless.
What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
