Hey everyone,
I also had my interview on Friday and ditto on all the previous comments. I had a second year student and we actually took the whole hour, although the last 15-20 minutes were me peppering them with questions. The whole 'tell you story' question is actually a lot harder than I thought it would be. I sort of thought it threw before hand a few times, but I'd suggest taking a couple of 30 minutes blocks and actually going through it. If nothing else, I found myself having to backtrack a few times to put events into context. No real follow up questions, I sort of led myself through everything they could have asked me.
I think this might have been brought up previously, but I'd highly suggest that you schedule your interview for after lunch. The professors were very engaging (and honest) and it would have been a great warm up for the interview. And yes, the place is beautiful. I went down in September, but forgot just how nice the whole area is.
Good luck everyone!

Not much to add on interviews...mine was with AdCom, tell me about yourself and then the more pointed "Why MBA?" question. I was surprised at how many people were there for the time slot (15-20). Get to the Admissions office early if you can, there will be second year students there chatting. If you have trouble talking about yourself for 30-45 minutes you may need to practice, but a life of dedicated narcissism prepared me well enough 
The more I visit Darden, the more I'm shocked that they are not consistently in the top 10. The facilities are amazing (they have a piano room, for God's sake), the faculty and administration are excellent, and the students are open and welcoming. If you want to stay/work in the Mid-Atlantic, I can't imagine a much better choice.
Interesting side note, apparently there was an article in BW that focused on a Darden's student's experience interning at Goldman Sachs. Evidently it was not too flattering, because there was a front page editorial in the Cold Call Chronicle ripping BW for that particular piece of journalism as well as Darden's most recent ranking.
