What are your general comments?

"Two great interviews! The interviewers did more talking than other interviews. Very friendly, lots of questions about my research and my study abroad (in a 3rd world country), lots of trying to sell the school. Not as many of the broad, open questions ("tell me about yourself") - instead, more specific, somewhat easier or at least more interesting questions ("what first sparked your interest?,")" Report Response
