What are your general comments?

"There was tons of downtime. I kept leaving and coming back and it was a huge pain. I wish they would have just scheduled everything that was required right away in the morning and then the optional things if you wanted to stick around. The case study and group interview was not set up right. I never even got a chance to talk since I was the only girl and got over powered by the guys. I would have also brought my own dictionary if I would have known we were all going to be sharing one." Report Response
