<p>Next week I will be interviewing at Macalester.. Has anybody on here interview in the past? If so, what kind of questions should I be prepared for?</p>
<p>Also, how does Macalester feel about test scores? I received a very low composite on the act (25) and do not feel like retaking the darn test.. The rest of my stats are good (look at past posts) Will this still be an issue?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance! I really would like to attend Macalester!</p>
<p>Median ACT score for entering class of Fall 2007 was 30 with 25-75% range of 28-32. If the 25 is from your first try, I'd strongly recommend retaking after doing some practice tests (especially if just one section was low).<br>
That being said, Mac is very holistic in the admissions process. A passion for internationalism, diversity and community service that comes through in your essays, extra-curricular activities and interview will carry you far--but it may not completely overcome a 25.</p>
<p>I had my interview last Friday and it was very laid back and straightforward. Lots of "tell me about your classes," "what did you do over the summer," etc.</p>
