had a very positive experience. Was first interview and left feeling like it went well. Expected interviewers to be fairly unresponsive, but was not the case. Overall, enjoyed the day, and was impressed with the school and their attitude towards students. Was asked 9 questions from form, but they were catered to my experiences. Not necessarily harder, but gave me a chance to give specific examples.
