What are your general comments?

I had my first interview at 10:00, after which I went back to the admissions office to fill out paperwork. There were two other students there, and we each met w/ the Dean to discuss our academic record and any questions I had. Then we had lunch w/ a student and he gave us a tour of the school and facilities. After that I had my second interview, and then we were free to go. The facilities are amazing, and the faculty and students were very friendly and helpful.
