At the school

How did you prepare for the interview?

What impressed you positively?

The campus was very pretty, neat, and tidy. The staff seemed very organized.

What impressed you negatively?

Campus was TINY. MINISCULE. DIMUNITIVE. MICROSCOPIC. LITTLE, even. More irritating was the downtime. Had I known in advance, I would not have shown up until 1/2 hour before the actual interviews. I'm not exaggerating, you have at least a couple of hours to sit on your thumbs.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That Phoenix is not a place I would ever want to live. If CPG were the only school that accepted me, I'd probably go. . .but would seriously consider waiting another year.

What are your general comments?

Neutral-to-negative. There is no excuse for that amount of downtime. We should have been shown the inside of a classroom and/or lab. We were allowed to peek through a tiny window into a classroom.
