What are your general comments?

We come in and wait for about 30 mins until the faculty set up everything. We took a math quiz (not that bad) and a writing essay (not that bad either). They are just looking to make sure you have good writing skills, not knowledge of the topic. Afterwards we waited AGAIN for a long time and it was extremely hot in the room. Finally they start calling us for our interviews and they were in batches. I was the last one in my group to go for the interview. The Interviewer was nice, however because she knew she was behind in time, she tended to rush the interviews which I thought was bad. She didnt seem as interested in my answers as I wanted her too. She just wanted to finish and move on. The whole interview process ran so late, instead of lasting 2-3 hours, I ended up leaving 4 hours later.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
