Extremely nice students.. but during lunch and at the interview. Friendly staff

What impressed you negatively?

The building is a maze... give yourself 30-45 minutes for &quot;getting lost&quot; time.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How relax the interview actually is. Too much fear over nothing.

What are your general comments?

The interview was very laid back and all three of my interviewers were very nice. From previous posts, I anticipated an interogation, but it turned out to be very conversational. They realy tried to learn about me.. questions mostly derived from my essay and application. Some ethical questions, but nothing I didn't anticipate. I was very nervous at first, but very relaxed once it got started.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
