alot of the questions asked were on sdn. interviewers were given a list of suggested questions to ask. 1 interview is blinded (only has personal statement), the other open file. this is where your personal statement comes in handy.

What are your general comments?

9-10 welcome, 10-11 interviews, 11-12 tour of facilities, 1-2 cirriculum discussion, 2-3 financial aid. at lunch a whole bunch of people came out, nice mix student body and faculty. your chance to ask how the school really is.
