What are your general comments?

I was surprised to get the interview and the interviewers can tell that I was really grateful.. All the questions were geared directly towards my personal statement and me as a person. They asked me about a problem I have during college...and I expanded that into..."Why I want to be a pharmacist" I talked a lot the whole time but just make sure they are still interested. And I got the acceptance letter a week later.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?
