What are your general comments?

I was one of the afternoon interviewees so I had to be there at 10:30 and go through all the orientation stuff, and tour with a student, but then i had to wait from 1 to 3:30 because i was the last interviewee. The room was comfortable but the interviewers sat so far away, it felt a little bit uncomfortable. They spent the whole time jotting down notes on a clipboard and hardley ever looked up at me.
