[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For Stanford, DD was contacted about a week or so after the application went in asking if she wanted to do an interview. She said yes; interview was scheduled about a week later and lasted half an hour or so. Interviewer was up front that it means basically nothing to her application, but it was a good experience for her.[/quote] Can confirm from other side as Stanford alum who did interviews this is all accurate. It may mean more than nothing if the applicant comes off really well or really poorly . . . but having interviewed ~50 applicants over a few years that was very rare. FWIW for Stanford interviewer gets no info about applicant other than name/HS/contact info - no essays, grades, test scores, etc. Other schools are totally different. Some do alumni/ae interviews Some have admissions office do them Some have students do them. As to when to sign up, YMMV.[/quote]
