What are your general comments?

"I arrived near 11:30am for a 1 pm interview. At 12pm a lunch/tour/meet with admissions deal goes on. The interviews are spaced out with half hours inbetween, and there are only 3-4 students there on a particular day. The interview was 1 on 2, usually a faculty member and a 3rd or fourth year. Interview lasts like 20 min, and then you can go home. No full day experience that drags on like other schools." Report Response
