What are your general comments?

"The day began at 10:30 with a presentation by one oth admissions officers. She provided plenty of great information. Then there was a financial aid presentation. After that we split up into a few groups and ate lunch with first years and then took a tour. The students were very enthusiatic and happy with their selection of Iowa for school. Next was the Case Based Learning session with 2 3rd years. Some people began their interviews at this point and did the CBL afterwards. The CBL session was so fun! The interview itself was very laid back. I was nervous at first because this was my first interview but I eventually relaxed. The interviewers simply take turns asking questions for the structured portion (4 questions. The unstructured portion is a chance for you to tell them any other information you wat them to know about you and they also ask further questions to clarify some of your prior answers. Overall there is no reason to be nervous. Just be yourself. " Report Response
