What impressed you positively?
Seems like a good program, students are glad to be there, close proximity to other health schools. The people who interviewed me were friendly, intelligent, and didn't try to stress me out.
What impressed you negatively?
Dean and some of the students were a bit arrogant, though perhaps it's warranted. Classes during P1 are 8:00 to 5:00, kind of intense. Not many elective slots.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
The area can be a little confusing, parking situation is not good. Give yourself plenty of time to find parking as the deck was full. Also, how easy and short the essay would be.
What are your general comments?
Don't sweat the interview, read the feedback questions, relax, and good luck.
