What are your general comments?

"To be brief, I was extremely unimpressed with the dean (or whatever he was) who hosted the interview. He seemed more concerned with his posture/physique than with any of the applicants - with the exception of a few of the prettier females. Dr Physique, errr, Simonsen came off as being pompous and smug, and extremely pretentious. He boasted of how they have only accepted 30 or so students, and how unlike the average school that has to accept 3 students to fill a spot, Arizona has to accept 1.5 He then followed that comment by stating that of the 30 they accepted, only 9 had sent deposits. One would think that Dr Fake-bake would know that you accept the most competitive applicants during the first round with the hopes of filling your class with the best. However, he eloquently explained how last year they wished they had room to accept applicants later in the year. Is he saying he wishes he could've replaced those students he accepted with other, better, applicants? How does the current class feel about that? Just my two cents... " Report Response
