What are your general comments?
I got there about 10 minutes early and basically went right into the Q&A. Both the faculty member and student that interviewed me were extremely nice and that made for a comfortable setting. They ask a lot of ethical questions and make sure that you have some questions to ask them. After the interview I had 30 minutes to write my essay while they interviewed another student. You have a choice between 2 questions that are similarly related. It was plenty of time to finish so there was no pressure. Overall, I felt very good after the interview and got my acceptance 4 days later!
