i could tell my interviewer did not like me. i waited outside her office for about 15-20 min. while she spoke on the phone and she didn't even shake my hand and say hello when i was finally able to walk in the door. she basically went over my amcas page by page and pointed out all my weak points and tried to put down all my accomplishments.
