What are your general comments?

Overall, relax and have fun. I wish I knew that it was a very chill interview process. The interviewers really just want to get to know you and see if you would be a good fit for their school, so if you really want to go to their website and find things that you would relate to. Definitely explain how you would be a good mission fit in both or at least one of your interviews.
