Nothing, it was a really organized, relaxing visit.

It was not going to be a panel interview. They decided to change it to 3 one-on-ones.

What are your general comments?

The interviewers did an excellent job keeping me comfortable and at ease. Everything was very organized and the tour was very informative. Do not stress about this interview. It was very laid back and simply felt like conversation rather than an interview.
