What are your general comments?

"Both interviews went very well. My first was very special in that the fire alarm went off about 15 minutes after we started. We continued the interview, though, as we walked down the stairs and briefly outside. At lunch we also talked with first year students. Due to the high number in my group, the student interviews were not one-on-one as I expected. Instead we went around the room and asked questions in a very orderly fashion. I left Nashville feeling very good about my interviews." Report Response
