What are your general comments?

The day started a bit earlier than other schools that I had interviewed at, but it also ended way earlier (~1 pm). The interview went OK - I couldn't get a feel for how well I did. The interviewers showed no real reaction. A simple nod or smile (or even shaking of the head... something!) would've helped. Otherwise, I enjoyed the interview day and really liked the school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
