A lethal dose of sleeping pills obvi
To be fair, they also phrased it as 'drug' instead of 'medicine', so maybe that primed the poor applicant. Or maybe I'm just biased on that one because it's been hammered into my head SO strongly that where I'm at right now, unlike at home, 'drug' and 'medicine' are not interchangeable words.
Haha, fair enough. I could totally see myself falling for that one though:
Alright, I admit there was some humble brag going on but only to make myself feel better for giving the wrong answer to what should have been an obvious question. I edited my initial post to be less obnoxious 😛
Thanks, me too! I promise to update when I find out. Also, I added to my original post another lovely moment from my second interview at that school. Not sure which of the two moments was worse but either way I'm feeling that my chances are pretty dim. At least I don't think I came off as a sociopath on any question. Oh but I'm remembering now that I used the term "ghost out" and then had to explain it to my interviewer. And also the term "ride the wave." FML.
Vodka is a perfectly good answer, it can be used to clean wounds. 😉
True, but if I could actually only take one medication ever again, the one that would affect my life the most would be Advil. Gotta love me some Advil!
Me too. Plus the idea of vodka minus the alcohol is too terrible to think about.
How did you get a mock interview with an actual adcom person? Through your undergrad?
🙁
It was a special program through a school that contacted me after my MCAT scores were released.
"And what's the deal with adcoms? I mean they're not ads. They're not even coms!"
On the other hand, I had an applicant this cycle who couldn't resist telling me how "witty" and "awesome" he was.
*barf*
It appears that he took the advice to "sell himself" a bit too literally...
Lol sorry I posted in the wrong thread.
I think it's unprofessional, but I'd draw the line there
Tell that to all of the people who are bashing Trump for saying, "grab them by the p....." like 10 years ago.
Yeah that's true. But the weird thing is that it's just a circle of friends.
People are petty
I literally was going to post that in my comment but I chickened out
"10 male students make a facebook group and are the only ones with access to the group. In the group they talk about their sexual interest with female students. What do you think of this?"
Although I agree it's just banter, the problem is that you engaged in an activity with other students and the school would see it as a violation of their behavioral guidelines, which you agreed to follow by matriculating.
There are plenty of ways in which someone could convey sexual interest without explicitly bragging about their desire to sexually assault someone, like Trump did.
