What are your general comments?

overall it was a positive experience, i was well informed about what the school has to offer and the interview was extremely casual. She basically asked like two interview ?'s and then we talked about how we are both from NYC the rest of the time. I think they try to pair you with someone who has something in common with you so you can somehow relate so just try and find that out and you are golden.
