<p>I could have been an interview, but I blew it by saying I was no longer interested and declining to do the interview. Now that it seems Dartmouth still reviewed my application I am kind of anxious to hear back too, although I probably shouldn’t be. Oh well, I’m an irrational human.</p>
<p>@collegegirl1995 Mine was with a psychologist as well. Terrifying. I hope we’re not in the same region. Competition scares me. (I have nightmares about this site.)</p>
<p>@stupiddorkyidiot I got an email requesting an interview for Columbia, but it was directed to my bulk mail folder. I only found it a month later while searching for an email containing my username to log in to the portal. I then responded apologizing and offering to have a phone interview if he had anymore questions. He replied and was again directed to my bulk mail folder where it sat for two weeks before I discovered it. I just gave up after that.</p>
<p>I absolutely loved my Dartmouth interview. But it was because my interviewer was such an amazing and impressive woman, and we clicked perfectly. But the problem was that Dartmouth was my first interview, and since it was so amazing it set the bar really high.</p>
<p>Dartmouth was the only Ivy that didn’t give me an interview :(</p>
<p>^^Why the ‘but’ …setting the bar high is awesome:)</p>
<p>Only interviewed for Brown, but then again, I live in Chiang Mai, which doesn’t exactly have a plethora of Ivy League alums…</p>
<p>P.S: I did Skype interview with Brown… The interviewer lived in Greenwich CT and I in Chiang Mai! Talk about global communications!</p>
<p>I did 5: Brown, Dartmouth, U of Chicago, Princeton and Duke. Princeton was the worst. Dartmouth was a pretty crappy one too. I hated the girl that interviewed me. She was way too bubbly and kept cutting me off when I tried to speak. LAME. -.-</p>
<p>I did interviews for Dartmouth, Brown, G’town, Yale, Rice, and Duke. My Dartmouth one was great! My best was probably Yale, but I have literally 0% chance of getting in there so YOLO it was a great conversation nonetheless.</p>
<p>My worst was probably G’town… the interviewer was really old and asked me literally 2 yes-or-no questions before saying he was done talking to me… and then when I tried to ask him about G’town all he could say was that it was “very different” when he was there! He knew nothing about student activities, life… anything.</p>
<p>lol. I’m glad I had no old alumni. xD</p>
<p>I only got 2 interviews: Princeton and Stevens</p>
<p>Princeton’s was an amazing one (about 1hr15mins over coffee), didn’t really ask too much about P’ton since I have experienced quite a bit of it, but he seemed to have had a great time and we spoke about all sorts of things! crossing fingers… he wrote a couple things down that I had hoped to get across to him I think he graduated in 2009, so pretty young (which probably helped quite a bit) :P</p>
<p>Stevens’ was over skype and is required for us internationals… it was pretty standard and their website covers most aspects that one would ask about the uni. Fairly boring interviewer, but it seemed like it was more to make sure that internationals will be able to cope leaving their home country etc… being an international boarder already I was chilled xP</p>
<p>My Princeton interviewer graduated before the school went coed. That was the god-awful interview I referred to earlier… lol. We just had absolutely. nothing. in common. And every time I tried to talk about something, he’d let me go on for a while and then cut in and educate me on what I’d just been talking about. I don’t know how to describe it, but it was not at all good.</p>
<p>I did five interviews: Dartmouth, Brown, Princeton, Yale and Yale-NUS. All were over Skype ( I am an international).
The best one is Yale’s. The guy who interviewed me had a female avatar, lol I thought I was gonna to talk to a woman. He gave me chances to vent all my opinions about current social-economic situations of my country. It was so great to be listened to:)
The second best one is Brown’s
The rest were all mediocre.
The Dartmouth alumnus lived in the same city with me, but she still wanted to interview over Skype?? Peculiar…</p>
<p>stupiddorkyidiot – I think I had the same interviewer, many years ago (I am a parent). My Princeton interviewer told me P used to be the only place north of the Mason-Dixon line where a southern gentleman would send his son to school. I am female, not southern, and he could tell by looking around the room (he came to my home – an hour late) that my parents were not “gentlefolk,” so why he felt inspired to make such a crass remark remains a mystery to me, many years later.</p>
<p>@ theowlgoeshoot: i had my interview in Amherst, MA. and 5 people form my school applied there, so i have a lot of competition haha</p>
<p>I had interviews with Yale, Harvard, Brown, Columbia, Dartmouth, UChicago, Wesleyan, and Villanova! Sidenote - I got waitlisted at Williams today so I guess that’s an indicator that I at least have a minute chance at the Ivies.</p>
<p>@ealdi94 I got waitlisted at Williams too as an international asking for aid and I got an early write to Amherst so I really hope I’ll get at least one acceptance tomorrow. My Dartmouth interview was one of my best interviews. I’m not expecting much though :/</p>
<p>Got flat out rejected by Williams…yeah.</p>
<p>I already know Dartmouth’s going to reject me. Financial aid documents still all “received - review in progress”. </p>
<p>All the schools I got into are absolute safeties; even my low low match rejected me.</p>
<p>Ah well, you guys deserved the spot more than I did anyways. Good luck people. I hope you get in.</p>
<p>Dartmouth will be the test of my chancing thing. Though I suppose there’s that 24%. >.></p>
<p>^ Hey! Congrats on Duke, you! That’s awesome.</p>
<p>Thanks, man! It’s a privilege to be admitted — I’ll do my best to be worth the investment.</p>
