What are your general comments?

"The day began at around 8 AM and we were given complimentary breakfast with a second year and third year student. After this we all sat in the ''fish bowl'' waiting area for our interviews. This dragged on forever. The actual interview was laid back and conversational and was not intimidating nor were there any strange questions. At noon we were given a tour of the building in which classes are held and the neighboring building that houses the basketball court where the sixers practice and a small workout facility in the basement. Afterwards we were released by 1230 PM. " Report Response
