What are your general comments?

"The interview was one faculty member, another prospective, and me. The faculty member was very nice and basically just gave us a tour and tried to sell us on BU. He talked at length on BU and touched on each of our applications, and asked us if we had any questions. There was not literally ONE SINGLE QUESTION during this so-called "interview". That having been said, it was a very positive experience because it was really a chance for us to see if BU would be a good "fit" rather than an opportunity for us to "sell" ourselves."
