How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN

What impressed you positively?

Inexpensive price, state-residency in 2nd year!

What impressed you negatively?

Didn't get a chance to really talk with the students, felt like they were only letting us see what they wanted us to see.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Dr. Thibodeau mentioned about 20x that the curriculum is "extremely demanding". Over and over and over again.. felt it was overkill. But maybe it really is that tough at UConn.

What are your general comments?

They were friendly enough.
