Actually sometimes the application doesn’t give the whole picture…so anything he doesn’t think is captured would be a great thing to talk about.
So if you get a “Why Case” question then he can talk about how Case provides the opportunity to also explore Economics since it is a single door admission school and the business school is open to non-majors taking classes… he likes being in an urban environment and especially Cleveland because…
Use the interview to talk about these things.
Thanks. The interview happened. Turns out it was with a senior at Case, which made my son much less anxious. It was pretty basic. The one question that stumped him was which class in HS did you love and which did you hate. He didn’t want to go negative - I think he managed in the end to say something about how one particular teacher struggled mightily with remote learning (my son was fully remote for most of last year). And now we wait … Thank you all for being so responsive and supportive.
Glad to hear it!
How are the Rochester supplemental essays coming along? My kid is getting tired of supplemental essays!
Not coming all that well … I think he’s procrastinating so that he can stay home for Thanksgiving as he has to “work on applications.”
He had a Rochester interview - also a student. He looked her up beforehand and she had 25,000 TikTok followers! He didn’t mention that he knew. So funny. One down, one to go on the Rochester essays.
