What are your general comments?

" The school is great, but then again this was my first interview, so its hard to say if my interview experience went well or not. I stumbled on the difficult question, but other than that, I did not feel nervous at all. It was very conversational. The orientation day was very well organized and everyone was extremely nice and enthusiastic. You can really tell they were trying to sell their school. Also, I met a person from my high school all way in Vermont while we introduced ourselves. Other than that, people came from all over: Cali, Montana, Penn, Florida, Minnesota, and Connecticut.
