Re-read website, especially info on new curriculum. Skimmed a few older SDN school-specific threads. Read through SDN interview feedback page. Reviewed my PS and secondary app.

What was the most difficult question?

Faculty interviewer kept asking me the same question phrased differently, which was basically: "You're old. How are you going to cope with the stress?" I was expecting to have to answer that question, but not five times. I don't know how many different ways I can re-word the same answer.
