How did you prepare for the interview?

Read the school website, SDN interview feedback.

What impressed you positively?

The clinical experience at Parkland hospital seems great, the students were friendly (the whole gunners at SW is a myth), faculty seemed to care about the students, the new student center is great, the campus was nice. Pretty much everything about the school was impressive.

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing. Everything was great.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

No responses

What are your general comments?

My only complaint was that the interviews seemed really short. My first interviewer took the full 25 minutes (which is still short) while the second one only took up 15 minutes. They were both nice but I got the impression they just wanted to see if I was personable as opposed to learning specifics about my qualifications.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
