What are your general comments?

When Mike Istwan (admissions director, very cool guy) emphasized how important the interviews are 10 minutes before I went to mine, I kind of freaked out. I was nervous, and don't think I interviewed as well as I could have. Still holding on to hope that I get in, though, it seems like a great school. The current students were really friendly and welcoming. The day was very well organized.
