What are your general comments?

"Dr. Heaton was very nice and comforting. She was a little late and hadn't seemed to have read my file ahead of time, but it still was kind of a good thing. I got to tell her what was in my file so I got to emphasize the positive parts more. She was very passionate about the school and we had a great convo about her work. The school was also nicer than I imagined. In all, I had a good 1st interview. I hope I get in." Report Response
