[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly I stopped interviewing for my Ivy alma mater because the school told us the most important thing was to leave a good impression on the kid because the interview mattered very little and chances are it would be the last impression they had of the school (since no one I interviewed ever got in).

I also have to say that it's not that easy as an interviewer to find a semi-public location where you can interview people.  For understandable reasons you can't have them over your house anymore so you end up trying to do it in a Starbucks or something which is awkward for everyone.[/quote]

Excellent point re the Starbucks.  I remember my Dad freaking out when he took me (30+ years ago) to my interview for an Ivy and I had to walk into some stranger's house alone.  Poor guy (my dad) just about had a coronary.  And, honestly, it was a little unnerving for me, too.

In any event, I am 5:45.  We just wish that our child's interview had been set up there first rather than the hoops the kid had to jump through for the prior 2 weeks.  The junkie fix poster was really spot on in the description.  [/quote]
