[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] This was one of the reasons I stopped interviewing for my Ivy Alma Mater. I put a lot of time into my interview reports and felt like they didn’t matter. The one student who got admitted went to a top private and was very well-connected. He had good stats and was nice, but didn’t stand out compared to others I had to interview (who were rejected). I was just done volunteering after that. [/quote]
