What are your general comments?

I really enjoyed my interviews. Both my interviewers were very friendly and engaging. They mostly just asked more in depth questions from things I said on my applications. The lunch was good and the tour was nice, but very short. I was impressed with the Yale system and the amount of freetime the students said they had. It moved Yale to the top of my list.
