Default Diving for glideslope

Ok here's nother one.

I was warned and have experienced that at Skywest's sim ride for the interview they will give you a clearance for approach when it's almost impossible to get on the glideslope. Several people warned me about this one and at my interview several people said they had the same thing at tried to make it down inside the marker. They never made it and using time reached the MAP and went missed. So what is the thing to do? I know what I'd do in real life. I'd ask ATC for a vector for descent or ask for a 360 to lose altitude but how does it look at the interview when people are going missed all the time after trying to make the GS?
