What are your general comments?

overall, the interview day was very informative. the school is trying to impress you as much as you are trying to impress them. the interviewees( about 40 total)were divided into two groups: one toured in the morning with afternoon interviews and the other had morning interviews while touring in the afternoon. i interviewed in the morning, first with a male resident who was all business, then with a PhD who was a sweet older woman. both interviews were about 30 min long and consisted of basic get to know you questions. the interviews were open file and they read them very closely as i was able peek at my interviewer's and noticed she had several things highlighted. time will go by quickly so make sure you steer the conversation to cover your bases.
