What are your general comments?

"My interview was okay. The interview at NYU is very low stress. I guess that they just want to meet you in person in order to find out if you're some kind of weirdo. My interview was brief. It basically consisted of introductions and the interviewer telling me why I should want to come to NYU. The tour of the school and meeting the students there was a valuable experience. I guess that I feel like I just wouldn't fit into the student culture there. The students I met all seemed like 22 year old singles who liked to party. If you don't feel out of place with that kind of people, then you'll probably like NYU." Report Response
