What are your general comments?

I stayed with a good friend of mine that goes to school there. I went to the school, ate lunch there, talked with a lot of the others that were interviewing that day. There was almost 50 people interviewing that day. The day was pretty short. The student that gave the tour really seemed to like the school. Also, don't worry, if you get the third interview...they stress this point that day. I was interviewed first by a faculty member. It went awful. Absolutely awful. My second interviewer was third year student, and that one went great! I assumed I was doomed because my first interview did not go well, but yesterday I recieved an acceptance letter in the mail. Basically, just be yourself. Once you get an interview, you have a good chance of getting accepted. I think they really do look at everything in your application. Good luck. And, be sure to go out in Milwaukee that night after your interview!!
