What are your general comments?

The day started out with a bunch of interviewees sitting around in a room, then three people came in to talk to us. All my fellow interviewees were dead. they didn't want to talk; they were probably afraid of looking like a &quot;gunner.&quot; Pathetic! The next speaker was a student. They brought in their star Neurosurgery student, who was a complete deadbeat. He was probably tired, so that's understandable. Then the frat boys came in. Sure, they were enthusiastic, but my personality did not match theirs. The tour was also too short. The students giving the tours were very down to earth, but it also seemed like they were just doing this for the free lunch. They just didn't have the &quot;If I didn't go to OSU, I would have killed myself&quot; enthusiasm. Thank god for my interview! I liked my interviewer a lot. However, I don't think I did too hot in the interview, so I'm probably rejected already. Oh well.
