What are your general comments?

I was positively impressed with the whole interview process. The staff makes sure that they get to know you and also that you get to know the school. They give you a tour and even let you sit for 30 minutes in one of the classes... Very well organized interview and very relaxed... I was stressing out about the interview, but my interviewer was very laid back, and we had very conversational interview. So don't worry that much about interview, just be yourself.
