It is practically impossible to teach good programming style to students that have had prior exposure to Basic; as potential programmers they are mentally mutilated beyond hope of regeneration.
Your interview experience matches what a few other people I know went through when interviewing with Google. They wasted a month of your life and put you through eight interviews and you still didn't get the offer. You are a patient person with a good attitude if you'd consider this a good experience. I'd be very angry and insulted.
Google employees need to get over themselves. The people working there aren't gods. On average, they aren't any smarter than any other large technical organization. I've worked with tons of really smart engineers, and none of them had to put themselves through eight interviews to get their jobs.
Their "interviewing" process pretty much guarantees that only masochists will make it through. Consider yourself lucky.
