What are your general comments?

Arrive early because there are students to chat with before the interview. There is also punch and cookies available also. They then seat the first group if students in a room, where they talk to you about how the day is going to play out. Then your interviewer comes in the room and personally escorts you to a faculty office where the interview wil take place. After that, you go to a big room where you take the written part of the interview. Then current USC studets come in and answer any of your questions. I felt like I did terrible, but I got accepted out of the first batch.
