What impressed you negatively?

"The whole day was very unorganized. Instead of splitting the interviews up into AM/PM we had to go through the entire schedule together. This made the tour very tight and everything overall cramped. The interviews were scheduled at the end of the day and in alphabetical order so I ended up going last. By that time, I had already been waiting for my interview (which lasted barely 10 minutes) for 2.5 hours. The room they put you in is outdated and doesn’t have central air either. We were all sweating in our suits and they had cleared away everything from lunch including the water. By the time my interview came I didn’t even care anymore I just wanted to get out of there. I was not greeted courteously by my interviewees either and they seemed to already ha s preconceived notions of me prior to me walking in the room as it is open file. At the end of the interview they shuttled what was the remainder of us into the admission deans office for “questions and feedback” which was her private office with ethnic trinkets all over... it was a very strange experience. Overall I would say that the school curriculum may be considered “strong” to some.. but they are incredibl set back on everything else. I threw my information packet in the trash as soon as I got home I was so disinterested in their program. All in all it at least gave me practice of perseverance and made my decision of which school to accept easier by one." Report Response
