[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ivy league grad here and I think this interviewer sucks. Similar to my boss who revels in giving crappy reviews to 9/10 kids he interviews "on principal." [b]Thankfully these schools don't put any stake in these interviews.[/b] [/quote] You're wrong. A decade back,I worked on an Ivy admissions committee for two years. We'd get over 2,000 applications from the DC Metro area with offers made to less than 200 of the applicants. In this age of rampant grade inflation where high school teachers, coaches, mentors, college counselors and other adults providing recommendations don't dare write "Johnny's a jerk," we appreciated frank assessments by alums on interview reports. Reports didn't always sway an admissions decision, but sometimes they did. No question.[/quote]
