I must give credit to Duke for running a well organized weekend. I had my interview today and also felt like it went ok but I could have answered some questions slightly better, but I'm not going to second guess myself. Now the MONTH long wait begins!!!!
Also it was very nice to meet some of you guys there. Very friendly prospectives crowd, the Fuqua students are top notch.

I, too, think the interview pairing was fantastic. My interviewer felt like the same person as me, just from a different country and a few years older. I don't know if adcom did this intentionally, or if I indeed was lucky. I've been somewhat shocked at how much I've come to like Fuqua in general. I expected to like it, but not as much as say Tuck or Tepper, and here it was launching itself to the top of my list.
Prospectives seemed like a fantastic bunch of people, too, would love to be classmates, sectionmates, teammates, yadda yadda

I agree. A month ago, Tuck was by far my number one choice... But Fuqua convinced me. My wife and I would absolutely love it there, and it is now far and away my first choice. Also, I have an odd background, and somehow Fuqua was able to match me with someone who has lived is all of the same cities I have, and has worked for competitors of companies I've worked for. Other schools have had a very tough time matching me with someone. Good luck everyone, if I get in, there is zero question in my mind, I'll be matriculating.
I had a below average GMAT score even though I felt the rest of my application was strong, but I didn't want to take the chance. I was fortunate enough to be accepted, but I can definitely see quite a few people out of the open interview slot that may have felt the same.
