<p>My interview is Tuesday and I need some advice. What questions are they going to ask? How should I respond? Should I wear casual clothes, or come looking professional? And what should I ask of the EC? Thanks.</p>
<p>Be yourself. Dress casually but respectfully, assuming that's how you feel comfortable. Read Mikalye's post #67 in a recent thread about MIT interviews. Ask about things you want to know about life and academics at MIT which you can't answer from a thorough review of the website and blogs. No one can tell you how to respond to the EC's questions: the EC wants to get to know you, not someone else's idea of what you should tell them. There's no way to tell what your interviewer will ask you, so treat it as a conversation, and have a good time. Most people report having really enjoyed their interviews with their ECs, even though it's stressful beforehand. Enjoy!</p>
