"Very nice facilities and spectacular location in Chicago, nicest area on Lake Michigan. Admissions staff was very friendly and students as well. " Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"Interview day somewhat disorganized. You have a solo interview and a group, which sum to about 1.5 hrs. However there is about a 3 hr gap there, so you are essentially sitting in the waiting area for around 1.5 hrs. Which is fine because there are other interviewees you can chat with, but gets a little boring. " Report Response

"How many spots are already takeninthe incoming class due to the Bachelors/MD Northwestern program. Definitely has an effect on the class dynamic. " Report Response

What are your general comments?

"BAsically, it was a pretty nice, relatively unstressful day. The weater was amazing, blue skies, the students seemed very friendly and seemed to enjoy their experience. After a continental bfast, you have a short meeting with the Dean, followed by your 20 min solo interview andyour panel interview or vice versa. The one on one interview is fine, so you have nothing to worry about. However, with the panel interview, I feel half of it may be up to who is in your panel (both interviewers and interviewees). Basically, you want a friendly panel, and you dont want any fellow interviewee on your panel to be super aggressive or annoying or amazing for that matter, as it could definitely detract from your performance. It is good to just go in and try to be relaxed as possible of course, pay attention to what everyone is saying, anddont worry if you have to take time to think about your answers. Then after the interviews, you have lunch and a nice tour by the students. On the whole, I liked Northwestern, and thought the panel interview went fine. It is nothing to worry about, however they will try to put you on the spot, so you absolutely have to remain composed. Even if your answer is not the best, the way you deliver it is half the battle."
