What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How hard the interview was going to be. I LOVED the school, the interview was difficult. I would have been calmer and handled it better if i was more prepared. i had about 20 + questions fired at me in a non-conversational manner. Literally no feedback/responses to ANYTHING i said (I think it varies widely by interviewee)
