What are your general comments?

"Overall, very good. There were only 10 of us interviewing, so it made for a nice size group. Lunch was tasty and everyone got to talk a little, which calmed all of our nerves. The chat with current students at the end was a nice end to the day. You're not being evaluated at that point, so you can relax and bring up any remaining questions you may have. An overall positive experience." Report Response
