What are your general comments?

"The interview was a complete waste of time. At no point did I think my adcom interviewer took the interview seriously. He had not read my file and the questions were basic. Maybe that's just his style....There was a fair amount of overt commentary about my age. Pretty shocking.....I left the interview feeling like a decision had been made before I ever walked thru the door. Fortunately, I have other acceptances, but I'm not expecting much from UNC."
