What are your general comments?

The day started out with a speaker. Then we had a question answer session with second year students. Then we went on a rushed tour and had lunch with students and other interviewees. Then we went on another little tour and then we sat in a student lounge and waited to be escorted to the interview. Then I went to an interview where I felt like my answers were too short because of awkward silence. The day was over...YAY!

The tour felt rushed and the location of the school seems a little odd.
