What are your general comments?

The interview took place on the South Campus on GSRI road. Started at 10:30 and lasted till about 1:30. Started with the chalk carving. Then everybody went to do their 1-on-1 interviews which lasted for about 1 hour. After that, we took turns with the 3-on-1 interview. This lasted about 15-25 minutes depending on how many questions you had. Each of them asks one or two questions and then they turn it to you to ask questions. It felt a little intimidating because there are three of them just staring you down, but of course Dr. Weir tries to make it fun and relaxing.
