Of the three I think you picked a good one to be an idiot on, definitely the least important. Although it is a first impression in a way but I messed up the middle question which I feel worse about than if I messed up "what's your favorite food".
I mean think of it from their point of view, these are in a way just to get a feel for a candidate directly so a big chunk of the impression is made in the first few seconds, then if you said something dumb it probably stuck for a bit but after another 30-40 seconds of well-spoken they probably forgot and then the next 30-40 seconds they come away feeling impressed.

Hi all, my first post on this forum - please be gentle 
Wish I had read some of these posts before I submitted the video essays, but clearly I've been living under a rock.
Did fairly well on the first 2 video essay questions - the Icebreaker and what path, why Kellogg. Ran out the clock while still speaking for the 3rd question
Did not wear a suit though. I thought Kellogg clearly mentioned (somewhere) that dress shirts are appropriate and accepted. Why are people on this thread so particular about the suit?

I wore a suit because I feel (and hence) talk more professionally in a suit. For schools, especially Kellogg, a dress shirt is totally fine!
