What are your general comments?

Arrived and sat with fellow applicants for 20min, then had introduction by dean and financial aid. Lucnh with faculty and MS3s, followed by a tour with same MS3s. Then back to admissions waiting for interview. You're waiting with fellow applicants and MS4s who are on adcom. There's plenty of time to ask them questions and just chat (be sure to say something). One of the MS4s calls you back for a 15min, closed-file interview. Then back to waiting with others for the longer, open-file faculty interview.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
