The only negative about this school is Norfolk. But I'm more of a city person, so it might not bother everyone.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

That I'd have to carry my belonings with me all day. Should've left my shoulder bag w/laptop in the car. This was my first interview though.

What are your general comments?

This was my first interview, so I was very nervous beforehand. But as soon as the conversation got going, it was very relaxed.
