What are your general comments?

Tufts is a great school. The students are really happy there, and they're really up front with you on the cost. At the interview just talk to the other interviewees so you don't get too stressed out. They make you wait in a room all together and the interviewer will come get you. It's all random, so you don't know when you'll be called.
