Interview :)

<p>Literally just got back from my interview. There were two people interviewing me at once; it was a little intimidating at first, but at the end I was confident that it went well. I left with them saying "You did very very good." --- nice english Harvard grads. They were both very nice guys.</p>

<p>Thank you cards</p>

<p>good job. i have mine tomorrow...hope it's all smooth sailing.</p>

<p>why were you interviewed by 2 people? I don't think that's Harvard policy.</p>

<p>i think it is...</p>

<p>has anyone else not been contacted yet?</p>

<p>i hope that they said that 'you did well' because, as harvard grads, they should know that adjectives describe nouns and adverbs describe verbs</p>

<p>EncomiumII
i haven't been contacted yet.</p>

<p>Me neither! And I even know other people in my classes who have been...it's kinda weird.</p>

<p>two of my friends havent been contacted...dont worry</p>

<p>I just got contacted a couple of minutes ago.</p>

<p>He seems like a really friendly old man, so I'm excited =)</p>

<p>mine was really nice, but really intense...very into it, i could tell. clearly <em>loved</em> Harvard.</p>

<p>she was very insistent on me sending them writing samples, though, so i'm having someone look at those now...</p>

<p>just spent 2 hours with my interviewer...she was really sweet and sent me off with a bunch of used novels by this author we both read. that has to be a good sign right?</p>

<p>sounds awesome haosquared. Mine only lasted 45 minutes, but I got a lot of talking in. One of the fellows was a dentist, and thus he was very intrigued by my passion in anesthesia. My stats are horrible so I'm obviously not putting my hopes too high for admission.</p>

<p>Don't worry...anyone with high hopes for admission is most likely self-delusional.</p>

<p>Yeah, I just applied because there was that .01 percent chance that they could accidentally place my app in the admit pile lol. My ACT and SATiis are low, but I am one of the most well-rounded kids that has gone through our high school. I'm just hoping that Harvard realizes that, and the interviewers definitely realized that. I mean, I think it is pretty uncommon for a kid to have a 33 ACT, 3.96 UW GPA, #1 varsity tennis all four years, discover an interest in anesthesia, and have a great love for surfing. Oh well, I'll be happy anywhere. I could move to Tahiti and be happy living a poor life. Atleast I could surf everyday.</p>

<p>hehe! nice outlook JCOliver, my reasons for applying are very similar to yours (Harvard's the only IVY i applied to)--and yeah I hope they see how extremely passionate I am about politics and the performing arts. If they don't-- oh well, it was definitely worth applying, and I'll be happy at any other place I applied to. </p>

<p>my interview is tomorrow! wish me luck! =)</p>
