What are your general comments?

"The experience was very nice. I thought I would be much more nervous than what I actually was. Everyone was very nice. The fact that you're being ''observed'' all day long by the vet students who have a say about you is kinda stressful. The interview was very relaxed. My interviewers were really nice and easy-going! I felt they wanted to get to know me more as a person and about my experiences than ask me silly questions...(even though some people got easked silly questions/ethical/etc by other interviewers, so be prepared). But you definitely have to know what to say about yourself, why you want to do this, explain any research or work...just know YOURSELF. The interviewer called me the same night to tell me I had been accepted!" Report Response
