What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

apparently, this late in the game, all acceptances have been sent and from now on students are either rejected or put on the ranked waiting list

What are your general comments?

I interviewed on the second snowstorm of the season. My interviewer was half an hour late, but made up for it by being really interesting. He asked me a lot of questions about my culture and then seemed to read down the list of "standard" questions. He actually took notes while I was talking. There was no formal group welcome, but the tours were really thorough. I was surprised to hear about the whole waiting list thing but supposidly Temple takes a lot of students from it. I got a waiting list letter less than two weeks after my interview.
