<p>My interviewer is about an hour away from my home. This will be my first interview, and I'm just wondering, is this normal?</p>
<p>An hour? You are happy! Mine is a day away! It's true, I'm an international. But anyway, an hour doesn't seem too much too me.</p>
<p>I drove my son just over an hour for his interview last year. I believe the interview was an important piece of his packet, confirming the rest of his application and letters of recommendation. Make the drive!! He had a wonderful interview with an old, enthusiastic alum of MIT.</p>
<p>(conversely, to schools where the interviews that were awkward and tense, he didn't get in...no coincidence??)</p>
<p>Think about it....if one were constipated...:eek:...one could easily spend an
hour at the toilet through the course of a day....an interview cannot be
all that bad an experience and once you get it over with it has to be a
relief.. :D</p>
