What are your general comments?
Overall I had a great experience at TX A&M. People were very nice there. I had one interview at 8am on the College Station campus and one at 3pm on the Temple campus. I have to say this was not a typical interview day for me. We had a fire drill during the morning interviews. Luckily, I was already done with my morning interview when the fire drill happened, but it was funny seeing the other applicants being interviewed outside under the HOT sun. The tours at the Temple campus were amazing. The school really has some wonderful stuff for the students. Oh yeah, one more thing about my interview. One of my interviewers dozed off for a second or two while I was in a middle of a sentence. There goes my chances of getting in. Despite all the funny things that happened that day, I really like the school. Right now, it's my top choice for the match!!!
