What are your general comments?

I accidently got to my interview late, but my interviewer was really laid back and put me at ease immediately. After the interview, he took me to a private dining room in the CAB building, where a presentation on the school was being given. After the presentation, we had lunch and some med students came and talked with us and gave us a tour around the facilities in New Brunswick.
