Interviewing with Reed College

<p>I have an interview with the assistant Dean of Admissions on Wednesday. Any advice/tips/anything? This is my first college interview, and I really don't have a sense of what kinds of questions are asked, what it's like, what kind of questions I should ask, etc.</p>

<p>hi! I interviewed last week. don’t worry about it they’ll probably ask you why you like Reed in some admissions jargon-y way, ask you what you’re interested in if they haven’t eaked it out of you already, and then you just talk about that sort of thing. in my interview we literally talked the entire time about my research class in microbiology just because I accidentally brought it up in the beginning…anyways, don’t worry you’ll be fine. it was my first interview as well, and we went overtime. there was so much to talk about because the admissions person was interested in what I was working on, that I barely got to ask questions at the end. if you really like Reed/like whatever you’re interested in (academically or even outside the classroom) I’m sure you’ll do great :)</p>
