What are your general comments?

It was OK. I wasn't thrilled, but I didn't dislike it either. I was pretty neutral when I left. I mean, if I got in, it's not one of those things where I'd be positive I'd go there (since I already have a few acceptances), but I would consider it.
💬 Interview Process
