What are your general comments?

HORRIBLE. I got into every other school I interviewed at. Apparently a guy from my college had the same interviewer and was waitlisted as an in-stater. He called to get a re-do interrview, and then got in immediately. Bottom Line: If you get a gyn onc old man interviewer, run out the door before you waste your time.

He draws WAE on some paper... "What is this?" After 5 minutes of confusion, he circles the A..."Ok, what is this?" After another 5 min of confusion, "Ok, I'll give it to you. This is Afghanistan, West and East. Now draw and label the countries surrounding Afghanistan."

You mean other than the fact that my interviewer was the DEVIL himself? My tourguide got wasted on a school night--then proceeded to skip class to sleep it off.
