<p>Calling all past MIT applicants! I've just begun filling out my MIT application and noticed that I already have a suggested interviewer lined up for me to contact. I would like to contact him/her as early as possible, but before doing so, I wouldn't mind picking up some information on some interview Do's, Don't's, questions I should expect, and pre/post interview formalities.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>I think the most helpful general thing to do is to read over some of the interview threads we’ve had on CC over the past few years, notably [this</a> one](<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/massachusetts-institute-technology/583573-mit-master-interview-thread.html]this”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/massachusetts-institute-technology/583573-mit-master-interview-thread.html) and [this</a> one](<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/massachusetts-institute-technology/767427-2014-interviews.html]this”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/massachusetts-institute-technology/767427-2014-interviews.html). You’ll see some responses from Mikalye, to which you should pay particular attention, because he’s actually an EC himself.</p>
