Really left a positive impression. Also the food was good and my interviewers were considerate and kind and seemed geniuinly interested in me. " Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"The student of the 1st tour said some negative things about the school across the street.

Luckily this wasn't so about the rest of the students I met, just this guy. " Report Response
