that it was closed file. a lot of people spent their time talking about random things because they didnt know.

What are your general comments?

be prepared to talk about yourself! that's all they want to know

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

Admissions office was the most responsive of all the schools I applied to. They also let you know if you were accepted within a couple days! They always keep us updated which is highly appreciated.
