What are your general comments?

I really had high expectations for the school and thought I would absolutely love it since i really believe in their philosophy. However, my interview left me with an odd feeling. He had an attitude that challenged everything I said and did not seem interested in what I had to say about my experiences, which I think are important but he never even read my file beforehand. Also, I'm a little turned off by the school's policy of basically waitlisting everyone post-interview and then you HAVE to write ANOTHER why georgetown essay in order to be seriously considered on the waitlist.
