<p>Is having an interview before you even apply to a school pointless? I'm going to be a senior in September but am thinking of doing 2 interviews in August. I should have my applications done by early/mid October. Is this pointless? Should I just wait till after they see my application?</p>
<p>It doesn’t matter. Even if you interview in the fall, the person who interviews you will write the report w/o ever seeing your app. They just drop it into your file.</p>
<p>Thank you for your help.</p>
