What are your general comments?

Since it was so late in the cycle, I didn't really expect much from the interview even though they reassured us that we were interviewing for acceptances. With that said, I wasn't very stressed and decided to just be honest with my interviews. Luckily, my faculty interviewer was really sweet and sincerely just wanted to have a conversation. I'm not a huge fan of the lunch-interview, but my student interviewer did seem really nice, although he did ask more difficult questions that my faculty interviewer.
