What impressed you positively?

The facilities of the school are awesome.

What impressed you negatively?

Where do I start? There were 100 students interviewing that day (99 to be exact), and so the students didn't click like on my other interviews. The person interviewing me didn't smile, and read questions off the page. It was as if he had made up his mind about me and just had to do the interview for the sake of it. It totally turned me off. I wanted to withdraw my application right there. I probably will because I will not go there even if accepted (already have 2 acceptances in hand from schools that I actually like, don't even know why I went to IU). I truly disliked the experience.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

How much I wouldn't like the place

What are your general comments?

It was a joke. I truly wish that I hadn't gone and wasted my money. I wouldn't be happy if I went there. I'm withdrawing my app.
