What are your general comments?

"I was about as nervous as I thought I would be. The process was less casual than I had assumed--my interview questions were specific and difficult. 4 of us had interviews first thing in the morning, which was great, and then went on the tour, ate lunch, and went to class. The other 4 joined us at the tour section and had their interviews after, which probably added a lot of unnecessary stress." Report Response
