What are your general comments?

My interview was really long, almost 2 hours!!! But it was very conversational, and although we touched on many various topics, it seemed very smooth and not stressful at all. Students at RWJ seemed very normal and I was surprised that they arrived to give us a tour considering that 2nd years had an exam the very next day. Would love to go here!
