"High scores on the comlex" Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"Students seemed to hate being there. There were a lot of rules to be followed and a strict dress code, I realized that most students only came to school for lab or their group discussion because the building was EMPTY when I visited. I was OOS and I knew that meant I would have a really hard time getting to know my classmates since they wouldn't ever be at the school outside of the one hour group discussion. I was also discouraged when I asked the interviewer if he felt that the students liked being their/general comments on the campus community and they said the scores and professionalism mattered more than the happiness of the student community. Hard Pass." Report Response

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

"There's nothing really around the school except for a high school which has a lot of traffic at the time you want to get their for their interview, so go early." Report Response

What are your general comments?

"I could not see myself being happy at this school. It was very isolating and you're expected to teach yourself everything. I sat in on one of the PBL classes and the teacher was highly unprepared. She ended up spending 15 min of their hour long class looking for IT people and the students kept joking about how terrible the faculty and administration are. Why would you say that to APPLICANTS????" Report Response
