What are your general comments?

"Overall, the interview was very relaxed. It's over lunch. They do ask you to write a short essay in 15 minutes. It's no biggie. Everyone at the interview is pretty friendly. Do make conversation with others, they are watching you...how you interact socially. (I mean...do that anywhere you interview....you never know who's watching you) The information sessions do get a bit long...but they just wanted to make you stay informed- so bear with it.
