What are your general comments?

My interview was very relaxed and conversational. No really stressful questions. He looked over my file (just extracurriculars and personal statement) before asking me questions. The hardest part of the interview was finding the building it was in. I asked some students on campus if they could point me in the right direction and they had no idea where the building was.
