What are your general comments?

"The day consists of the interview, tour by students, lunch, and a brief talk from someone on the admissions committee who was a member of the second graduating class from AECOM. He related his experiences, and attempted to sell the school by telling stories of the unique students that Albert Einstein is looking for. The tour was very short - we walked past the library and then toured AECOM'S gym and Apts. Lunch was very good - don't be scared that it is strictly kosher. My interview was, in my opinion, pretty far away. It was not a stressful interview. My interviewer says that the interview itself counts for less than the personal statement and #'s."
