What are your general comments?

I enjoyed everything about the school itself. I really liked the facilities and seeing all the students dressed in scrubs. The actual interview, however, was really bad. I felt the interviewers were really rude and condescending. I was asked to explain everything on my application and no matter what answer I gave they never seemed satisfied. I was expecting the interview to be about getting to know ME better but it wasn't like that at all. They didn't care about who I was only why I wasn't the perfect applicant.
