"SDN, google doc with stereotypical interview questions and possible responses, talking to other current and past applicants about their experiences, bulleted list of key points I wanted to touch on, some questions to ask the interviewers, etc. Remember to dress the part and be confident! For me, it helped a lot to think of it more as a conversation than an interview. They are trying to get to know you." Report Response
"That the interviewers are really trying to get to know you as a person, it is less about your achievements (academic or not) or standouts on your application. You can tell that they care about who they will be inviting into their community and want to make sure that those people will be a good fit." Report Response
"Compared to interviews at other school this one was very short, so the time crunch is palpable. Sometimes questions and responses will be rushed." Report Response
"That the school focuses more on learning who you are as a person and less on explaining "hiccup" grades, or standouts on your application." Report Response
"There is a moderator in the room, normally an administrative staff who is a non-voting member of the interview committee. They will keep time and intervene if needed. Also, every applicant receives a numeric score for their interview and other portions of the application process, those who rank high enough at the end are extended seat offers." Report Response

"Please consider making the interview slight longer, maybe 20 minutes, so there is less of a rushed atmosphere. Also so both the interview committee and the student interviewing can continue to have a conversational like interaction." Report Response
