I had a really great time at Chicago. The campus is beautiful and the students and faculty and admisisons committee totally make you feel at home and welcome. It wasn't at all scary or stressful. You also get a lot of time to meet the other interviewers and chill. And they gave us a picture of the group of us and a bubble pen! The interviewers were very nice and not at all scary. Very conversational feel. Good times!
