[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i interview for a reasonably competitive college.  i was very impressed with and tried to write really nice recommendations for most of the students this year.  most of my interviewees were either denied or waitlisted.  there are a very large number of talented students applying nationally.  [/quote]

Seems like a waste of time to interview them then. My friend did this for their school and stopped, because the people they spoke to rarely were accepted. [/quote]

I don’t get this. You do the interview as one single part of your application, to try to bolster your application. When did the expectation become that if you interview, you’re in?[/quote]

You are all over this board accusing parents of having feelings and opinions they haven’t expressed.  Why do you assume the worst of parents?  PP who interviews said most were denied even with great interview feedback.  Another person said it seems like a waste of time. No one has said they thought that was the ticket.

Not every feeling parents have is entitlement. Learn nuance of human thought and emotion and stop making assumptions so you can snap back with a snarky response. [/quote]

And you’re talking about *me* being in my feelings? LOL![/quote]

No. I’m saying you’re an a$$ just here for snark. You proved my point. [/quote]
