How well the entire staff tries to make you calm down and feel relaxed. They really just want to get to know you as a person so they want you to relax while you are there.
What did you wish you had known ahead of time?
How many hills there were. Do not wear heels unless they are extremely comfortable and you can walk up and down steep hills in them.
What are your general comments?
My interview was extremely conversational. They only asked me one tough question. It was not stressful by any means. Some of the other students said that they were asked many of the questions that are posted on this forum. It really depends on who interviews you. Some people were asked ethical questions and what they would do in a particular situation. Another student was asked to describe herself in three words. Don't get too worried about it just be prepared and you will be fine.
Success!
