What are your general comments?

"As expected for U of M, they spent the entire 5 hours bragging about themselves. Their facilities were ancient. My high school science labs were bigger, better, and more up to date than theirs. The personal interview was more like a conversation in a bar, as most other reviews warned me. In comparison to the other schools where I interviewed, U of M definately had the oldest of everything. Not to be so negative, but that's exactly how it was." Report Response
