What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

that the interview was going to be laid back

What are your general comments?

One thing I must definitely say is that the interview was very laid back so make sure you are not so stressed out about it that you fail to actually learn about the school itself. Take the time and thought to ask good questions, take a good look around Boston if you aren't from there to make sure you like it or not. Interview was really good...have fun, enjoy it, and RELAX!
