There was a little bit of waiting/downtime, but not too bad. In the morning we took a pretty basic test (math, reading and science). After the interviews we split into groups and did a little project.

What impressed you positively?

Denver seems like a cool city. The two interviewers were very friendly and welcoming; the interview was very conversational. They made me feel very comfortable.

What impressed you negatively?

The interview was very rushed because I was one of the last people to go and they were running behind. Also, I found out that they only gave out interviews this year based on GPA because they had such a huge number of applicants. I thought that was a little ridiculous seeing as that half of the candidates there only had a 2-year degree. Of course someone who only took classes for 2 years will have a better GPA than someone with a bachelor's.
