What are your general comments?

I arrived at the school. I went on a tour. The guide was a student which was nice because we were able to get a student's perspective. The interview was a group interview. Like I said, this does not afford the opportunity to express yourself the way that you would like. You are more or less competing against 3 other people in the room.
