What are your general comments?

The school is my ideal, hence the high ratings above. I live in Winston, know the area and the types of people there, and thus really want to go to Wake. I'm a Christian, and indicated as much in my primary application, and got a little bit of flack from one of the professors in the form of the ''God thing'' question and other ethical questions. I was ready for the interviews, though the way in which some of the questions were asked was a bit disconcerting. On the whole, I'm impressed with the school, and am looking forward to attending if at all possible.
