What impressed you positively?

"A&M has a tradition of being a family atmosphere and graduates seem very loyal and I could see better where that originates from. Most everyone was open and helpful. " Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"I rated the interviews negatively, but it was really only the final interview that was not positive. This was my first interview day, so I was nervous. However, I interviewed with a doctor that offered no visual feedback during the interview and that was a little difficult to deal with. I tried to anticipate the various personalities that you might encounter, but a stone faced interviewer who would continue to stare even after you finished your answer was quite different for me. I had to fight the urge to continue talking after my answer was complete. Since that was my last contact with the school before I left for the day, I didn't know what to make of it on the way home. " Report Response
