What impressed you positively?

"People were very nice. Interviews were very informal and relaxed - mostly just chatted about interesting things I'd been involved in. Campus is very pretty. Tour was good, and they let us see a cadaver in the lab." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"The only thing that bothered me was that it was a looong day. Also the school is very expensive." Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"That the interviews, while open-file, were very spontaneous - the interviewers had had our secondary applications, which we had only turned in just that morning, and that was what they went off of. Seemed kind of random at first, but it turned out great because that made it practically stress-free... they didn't grill you on anything." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"Interviews were practically stress-free, more like an informal chit-chat. Campus is pretty. Just be prepared for a long day. Make sure that you (and whoever comes with you) has something to do, like a book to read or something. There will definitely be some downtime." Report Response
