[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UPenn alum who interviews- I haven’t met a single kid from Churchill who ever sent a thank you note. These kids take it as a given that they’ll get in and then surprise, they don’t. They all have the same magnificent extra curriculars which are clearly done just to get into college. It’s much harder to get in now than when I went there in the 90s. [/quote] I'll bet you enjoy doing the interviewing and thinking you're superior. You realize that the interview means nothing to the admissions committee and that it's just a big ego feed, right?[/quote] You totally missed my point. The interview means nothing. I’m saying that it’s hard to stand out and when it is between two kids with comparable applications, you never know what one little thing is going to push them over into the yes pile. It’s a shame, cause if they were applying from somewhere with less local competition they’d probably get in. [/quote]
