I think I bombed my interview to my top choice program. The small chat and connecting was fine, but I felt like I prepared for the wrong type of behavioral questions. And when I gave my response, I said a lot but it didn't mean anything.

Time to stress eat and cry over the election too.

I know that people say it’s all about story, but with a certain gpa/gmat score is there a “floor” that you’re safe on?
