What are your general comments?

"I got along really well with my first interviewer and he asked me some very good questions; the interview flowed and lasted about 60 min. However, my second interview only lasted 20 min and I felt like I did not impress the second interviewer at all. I go to another school in Florida and I think that both of my interviewers believe that I want to stay there. It was difficult to convice them that I wanted to leave and attend Florida without belittling my current institution." Report Response
