What impressed you positively?

They get back to very soon after the interview, within a week or two.

What impressed you negatively?

They seemed to have a very doubting tone as the went over my app. as though they didn't beleive me.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

They would be so stern. They gave me no response to my answers, I would have prepared differently.

What are your general comments?

Over all I think their intentions were good, but they made me really doubt how happy I would be working with them. I felt corned throughout the entire interview, and that I really had to defend my goals and experiences. One interviewer didn't even listen to my answers, she was a researcher and just wanted to see if I knew the answer and would cut me off as soon as I started giving it.
