What are your general comments?

the interviews really surprised me. i spent the night before reading up on why penn state, but when I got to the first interview, i was asked 2 questions (all of 15 minutes) and then she sold me the school and how great it was and asked me if I had any questions...i had to scramble for more creative questions so it didn't end so soon! in the second interview, we talked casually about my childhood. overall, very few "traditional" questions...
