No responses

How did you prepare for the interview?

Search of school on SDN, read website for RWJ and looked over my application.

What impressed you positively?

Students seemed happy and friendly. The school is upgrading its technology.

What impressed you negatively?

The academic building seemed a bit drab. The main teaching hospital for the New Brunswick clinical campus is 10-15 mins away from the school, and there is often heavy traffic.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

My interview was open file, but I wasn't asked any questions about anything in my file.

What are your general comments?

It was a pretty laid back day. There was a video about the school, a question and answer session with a dean of admissions, a student led tour, lunch and a short financial aid presentation. I had my interview after lunch, but some people had interviews in the morning.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
