Is the MIT interview helpful?

<p>ive heard from many people that interview for ivies are seemingly useless, but i know MIT is a bit different. They seem to be more keen towards the personality or uniqueness of their applicants and care about what he or she is going to offer to their campus. now my question is - is this just a load of, for a lack of a better word - crap? Please if you have experience with MIT and have gotten an interview or not lemme know (:</p>

<p>I interviewed with MIT…I’m pretty sure the admissions offices takes the interview into account. Also, choosing not to interview seriously harms one’s chances.</p>

<p>The nice thing about MIT’s interview is that it’s more informal (more like a “conversation”) which I like.</p>

<p>Maybe repost here?
