How did you prepare for the interview?

read the brochure, and these feedbacks

What impressed you positively?

students and fellow interviewees...the students there are cool

What impressed you negatively?

faculty interviewer was very arrogant, though the interviews are closed file, they get our PS, which of course my interviewer did not read. took a lot of restraint for me to keep from telling him to get over him/herself.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

that the "person to person" approach talked about in the booklet (which i totally bought into) is a total crock of **** - at least that's the impression i got.

What are your general comments?

student interviewer was cool, faculty interviewer was a toolbox.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
