[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]interviews are this coming saturday and the following saturday FYI. seems very soon for some interview invitations to still be sent. [/quote]

How could they possibly interview 500 kids in two days?[/quote]

Maybe the school is dispensing with the "interview" pretext this year and just lining them all up against a wall and picking the ones they like best? Might be more intellectually honest than a standard less 10 minute "interview". [/quote]

i tell you, it's been about looks for the last 2 years.   [/quote]

As described to me (by one of the interviewers), it's more than just looks (although that helps).  It's really who would they want to hang out with.  Which is a really stupid way to be making admissions decisions. [/quote]

Well, that is troubling.  Do they get any training to do the interviews?[/quote]

Have a kid there and didn't experience any of the drama posted. Don't believe most of the garbage posted. They seem to be coming up with excuses why their kid isn't admitted already. Pretty sad...[/quote]

What is sad is that you believe that one 4.0 kid deserves/warrants a spot more than some other (4.0 kid) based on a 10 minute "interview."  Just make it a lottery and call it a day.[/quote]

Wrong..no one deserves anything! The process is a lottery of the highest GPAs so what's the problem? With all the grade inflation everyone is leaning on, shouldn't be an issue. I guess that's not merit.

If your "coached and tutored" kid could function without a pacifier, you wouldn't be so up in arms.....[/quote]
