[quote=Anonymous]It is easy to understand that the interviews are unlikely to count for much -- not everyone will have the opportunity to do an interview, in many places, there will be no alum nearby and those students cannot be penalized. Also, it is very difficult to ensure any consistency among the interviewers and it would be wrong to penalize or reward a student because of the qualities of the interviewer. But as others have noted, if offered, a student should do them if for no other reason than to show interest, which for many schools is an important factor related to their yield. But students should also be prepared because the interviews can hurt you (uninformed, uninterested, boring) and that would be the worst of all outcomes. [/quote]
