<p>Honestly, I bet they do. Not in your case as an athlete, but if a normal person went and interviewed and they appeared to be grossly overweight, I suspect that gives the interviewer a negative impression of him.</p>
<p>I’ve been to top New England prep schools all my life, and they require interviews. I’ve always noticed how, outside of maybe 3 or 4 students in the whole school, NONE are obese and very, very few are overweight.</p>
