What are your general comments?
Overall, the experience was great. The faculty and students were very nice although MS I and IIs had exams during my interview date, so I didn't get as much interaction with them as I would have liked. Also, everyone commented on how easy the interviews were, but I found that one of my interviews was extremely hard. The interviewer was very opinionated and for the sake of not arguing, I had to shut my mouth and take it all in, which angered me quite a bit. But I think that is rare. Otherwise, overall good experience minus the one bad interview.
