What are your general comments?

"Overall, it was a great experience. The day starts with an overview of the admissions process and the curricular tracks. Then they take you on a tour of the campus and the surrounding city. After that it's lunch with current MS1 and MS2 students (Ho-Ho cake rules!) and then the interviews. Some of the interviews were conversational get-to-know-you type interviews and some were more structured (with the interviewer reading prepared questions off a list). Nothing stressful, tricky or difficult." Report Response
