What are your general comments?

the school, students, admissions faculty were great and made the school very impressive in my mind...my interview was not so much..i had 2 ppl, one really nice man and another very intimidating lady which made for a very interesting dynamic. i thought my interview went really badly because the lady kept ripping me apart, but i think she just did that to see how you dealt with stress because other ppl who had her thought the same thing..i was accepted 2 days after. if you are yourself and confident you should be fine even tho it may not seem like it at the time...

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
