What are your general comments?

"Interviews with 4th year students, individually, are closed file. Interview with the Adcom faculty member are open file. While you're waiting to have your interview you're being evaluated by the 4th years (1-2) that wait in the room with you. Also, stay with a student host if at all possible. My student host helped me out with a tie when I realized that I hadn't brought one." Report Response
