What impressed you negatively?

"I didn't like either of my interviewers. The first seemed really distracted and literally stared at me for a full two minutes before I started asking questions and trying to have an interview. She was definitely a little batty. The other said out right that the time I had taken off after graduating from college seemed like wasted time. Also while waiting for an interview, a student pulled me aside and said that I should not go to Dartmouth. This was the only school where a student warned me not to go there. And, my student host wouldn't meet me until 11:00 at night even though I arrived during the afternoon because she had to study. That seemed a little weird to me." Report Response
