Did anybody else get the Pritzker DVD in the mail? I really like the school, but WOW, the DVD was awful in my opinion. Definitely didn't make me more likely to go there.

I didn't get the DVD in the mail, I figured I learned everything I wanted to at the interview. The DVD was put together by a student so I didn't think it would be a big deal anyway....I definitely wouldn't base an opinion on Pritzker due to a DVD though! The school is fantastic - I still can't believe I'm going there. I would leave the decision up to the school, not their marketing 🙂
My complaint is how the DVD flows - instead of moving from chapter to chapter without user interaction, you have to click every five minutes. That gets annoying.
Everyone on the DVD made comments that just seemed forced/fake/uncomfortable. When I visited and met some of the people featured in person, this definitely wasn't the case, so it won't influence my decision either way. I also agree the clicking was a pain, and what I was watching just seemed to get boring/repetitive after awhile. Granted, I've only been to Pritzker once, but I just feel that if that was shown to me knowing nothing about Pritzker and never having visited, it wouldn't have influenced me to want to go there...if anything, it would have probably deterred me because the way people spoke on it seemed so fake/contrived...even though it probably wasn't. But that's just my personal opinion. Other people could have received it differently.
