What are your general comments?

I was extremely nervous for the interview, had the first one of the day. The kid sitting with me made me feel like I shouldnt even be there talking about god knows what kind of research. Then I got into the interview and relaxed (they seem to give you people that are in your "track" - I got a cow guy that specifically wanted to know about my cow experiences!) -- After a long day of nerves, I did feel pretty good. Evidentally they did too, I got accepted.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
