What are your general comments?

My interview experience was mixed, and not too bad. It was my first, and for the most part I enjoyed it. It was a mixed experience mostly because I am nervous about the results of my interview and felt that I could have given stronger answers. The students were really friendly, and everyone seemed encouraging and wanting to help. The fellow interviewees with me were also friendly too. If I got accepted, this would definitely be one of my top choices. I wrote an essay first, took a tour of the school, had a group discussion, interview with two students, and an interview with a faculty member.
