What are your general comments?

Basically, the day is very relaxing until it comes time for the interview, but do not stress. Whether your interview will be laid back or stressful depends on who your interviewer is, there are probably 20-30 interviewers and basically all are extremely nice except like one or two who try to make you interview miserable. I interviewed here twice, last year my interviewer was horrible and totally degraded me and my application, but this year my interviewer was awesome, totally laid back and we just had a conversation. I got my acceptance letter three days later. So don't stress, if u get one of the mean interviewers stay positive and don't let him intimidate you.
