What are your general comments?

At every point during which you are not actively engaged in the interview day (before it starts, during lunch, any waiting times) the schools sends a huge number of students to answer any questions. It seemed off-the-cuff and non-corporate. NYU seems confidant in the satisfaction of their own students with the school that they will send any of them to speak with prospective students. Even students I bumped into accidently, who had nothing to do with interview day, said the same positive things. And all had to really think hard to find something negative to say when pushed for it.
