What are your general comments?

"Lorraine, one of the staff, gave a tour of the school. While she is quite knowledgeable about the school and the students, I would have much preferred having a student give the tour. We did have lunch with two second-year students. If you arrive in Manhattan, take the Express Bus. You want to take the one that leads you to Morris Park Ave. and Eastchester--right in front of the school. Towards the end of the interviewer, my interviewer repeatedly asked me if I had any questions. Be prepared with at least four solid questions. The interview is closed although I did see my interviewer have my file as I walked into his office." Report Response
