What are your general comments?

The facilities were nice. The interviewers and presenters were very kind. I would have liked some coffee in the morning. We were also instructed to be there at 9am, but no one from the admissions office showed up until 10am, which was a little awkward for everyone. I also had three separate hours to kill throughout the day.
