Does anyone think there is a method to the order in which they call candidates in for their one-on-ones? Like, are the earlier or later candidates stronger/weaker or do you think its completely random?

How did you like the interview? Do you mind sharing your experience? :-D


Based on recent reports, the experience is pretty much like in the previous years. If you interview in Philadelphia, the 1-1 will likely happen with 2nd year students.
Elsewhere, it should be with adcom members. Good to know when preparing for questions to ask...

Interviewed yesterday! And now the waiting game...

I think it went well. I had a great group where we all split airtime pretty evenly, built on each other's ideas, and presented a solid proposal in the time allotted. If possible, I'd love my whole TBD to get accepted as I think they would all be fabulous classmates.

Hi Anthony,

Thanks for the heads up! I'm interviewing in a couple of days and just wondering what all docs I should carry. I would think the resume and transcript would be all? Did you receive the follow up email right before your interview? Because I don't think I got anything that mentions it...

Also - are they okay if people bring their notes for the discussion?

Thanks!

The resume is the only required document and I received my reminder e-mail 2 days before my actual interview.

How did everyone find the 1 on 1? They cut it down to TEN minutes this year.
It was clear they just glanced over the resume you just gave them because they asked question about things you had already covered in your essays and it felt super rushed

Does anyone know how much it counts?
