What are your general comments?

My interview was for 10:30am but they were running late so I wasn't seen until 30 or so minutes later. They came out periodically into the lounge, where about 5 students sat waiting for their interview or the tour to start,to tell us they were running late and to relax (relaxation was the key they emphasize the most). We saw a movie about the school involving some of their students while we chatted and waited for our turn to be interview. My interview itself was basic. I was even complimented on my accomplishments--I was taken aback since no other school's interviewers did that. Once the last person was interviewed, we went for the tour which was led by first year students--very helful and happy to be at the school. then we had lunch.
