<p>runningincircles does hotpiece!</p>
<p>Cookie, why would I give DHA a break? He called me fugly. I'm willing to forgive him though, I just doubt he'd apologize.</p>
<p>The thing though PorSk, Harvard is an arts school. Literature, Politics, Business are their fortes. Its a school for mostly future politicans, professors and businessmen. I know they have strong sciences/maths departments, but their thing is the arts. So maybe he felt you were more of a techy, MIT person.</p>
<p>i wore... a tan sweater and black pants and black pointy shoes. and a black pea coat.</p>
<p>yeah guys are at a disadvantage when it comes to outfits... sorry everyone :-)</p>
<p>i loved having a male interviewer, personally. i think women judge other women too much and would have kind of made me uncomfortable.</p>
<p>i hate wearing semi-revealing clothing because it makes me feel self-conscious. people tend not to pay attention to what I say anyway. I'm not the most...intimidating (not the right word, but yeah) person in the world considering my 5 foot stature.</p>
<p>yeah exactly.</p>
<p>ladyinred, i'm 5'1! sweeet. yeah i do not like revealing clothes. they just don't flatter anyone's body and makes you lose like 10,000 credibility points. esp. in an interview or anything mildly important.</p>
<p>I understand that, but once again, not up to him to decide that. I'm extremely well-rounded and I like Harvard's diversity of programs. That's one reason I'm favoring it to MIT right now. The problem, though, is that my decision is still up in the air and he shouldn't be trying to push me away from Harvard when it's his job to sell the school to me.</p>
<p>awesome! woot for shortness!!</p>
<p>I wore a nice tunic and jeans (oh no!) to my interview.
I figured I'm not gonna wear a suit to Panera's!</p>
<p>Wedding dress! Dennis Rodman style!</p>
<p>hahaha yeah</p>
<p>mine was at starbucks</p>
<p>mmm, panera!</p>
<p>porsk, so you did SCEA harvard and ... RD? for mit?</p>
<p>lol hey byerly said it works on their subconsious. Plus, I look hot in a crimson shirt and black blazer lol.</p>
<p>"I hate wearing even semi-revealing clothes (even if i think there are cute) because then no actually pays attention to what i'm saying."</p>
<p>I would so abuse that. I mean really, you are trying to get into college. Who cares if the guy gawks at you? When you get into Harvard it wont matter. Ah chicks... you are strange :)</p>
<p>uhh...
it's about maintaining a level of dignity.
:|</p>
<p>His job isnt to sell the school to you, its to evaluate your character and personality and determine whether you are a good fit for Harvard. I always wondered if MIT would take a guy who is into the humanities. I mean their thing is math/science, but how cool would it be to be a literature/business major at MIT! That would be so diverse!</p>
<p>It is so demeaning to have a guy stare at your cleavage. It's like saying chest size is more important than opinions or thoughts. I mean what if every time you talked to a girl, DHA, they were more concerned with the size of your (i won't type it cuz i don't wanna get banned). I think you might feel differently.</p>
<p>his gawking= positive review=increased chance of admisison to harvard</p>
<p>Look at it hollistically, Feminazi lol (kidding)</p>
<p>Yep, cookie, early action for Harvard and regular decision for MIT... and the MIT interview came first. Go figure.</p>
<p>And don't worry, those aren't the only two schools I applied to. ;) If it comes down to it, I'd be perfectly happy at UMass. As long as I can get a stable job and family I'll be happy with whatever happens to me.</p>
<p>I mean, I try my hardest and I'll be disappointed if I get rejected from the upper echelon of schools but that's not what my life's about. I think it's more important to dwell on an off-the-cuff comment by your interviewer and obsess over it for life. ;) Nah jk, I don't really care that much.</p>
<p>and revealing clothing has zero to do with how good of a fit you are for Harvard. The point is, I'd like to get into Harvard based on my potential, academically and otherwise, not on my bra size.</p>
<p>"I mean what if every time you talked to a girl, DHA, they were more concerned with the size of your (i won't type it cuz i don't wanna get banned). I think you might feel differently."</p>
<p>I have, and ive been indiferrent. The hot girls usually are blind/deaf/dumb in respects of academia, so you talk to them about supercial things (although it does bore me). Sometimes you find hotties that are also intelligent and then you talk about how our dollar is raping the Euro, and then you talk about the former ^_^ lol</p>
<p>DHA, college interviews are actually two-fold: determine the personality of the applicant and sell the school. Obviously that's not as important for Harvard because they don't get turned down too often, but if you go to an interview for a school like Brandeis they'll spend fifteen minutes talking about all the benefits of going to their school.</p>
<p>I sent a bunch of pics of myself from theater reviews, and then on top of it my interviewer sent a picture of me he found in an article a local newspaper did on me. I like to think that it adds a nice personal touch.</p>
