What impressed you negatively?
How well your interview can go can depends on who interviews you. One of my interviewers left a negative impression on me. Just remember that you are interviewing them as well!
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
The school is really hard to find.. the street the school told us to use were closed down due to construction and the detour signs did not help.. I think I literally saw everyone from my interview driving aimlessly in the shipyard.. use google maps to supplement the map they give you!
