<p>Did anyone else get an MIT Interview in New Delhi?</p>

2

<p>There is a huge thread on this on the India forum:)</p>

3

<p>Can you link me? What I read was some of them were waived off by the admissions committee. But MIT’s offering interviews in New Delhi now. Did anyone get one?</p>

<p>That’s a very old thread. Now MIT is offering interviews in New Delhi!</p>

6

<p>How can they offer interviews now? I thought you get your EC’s details before you submit your app.</p>

7

<p>Some applicants were contacted by ECs recently.</p>

8

<p>I don’t see why they would selectively interview “some applicants” when they stress that the interview is an integral part of the application for everyone. I don’t think that’s how MIT goes about this process. Are you sure? Did you get an offer for an interview? Or is it just hearsay?</p>

9

<p>I got interviewed.</p>

10

<p>As per my status page in MIT
my interview has been waived.</p>

11

<p>Any other place where interviews are being offered?</p>

12

<p>So it is the ECs who are contacting? No way to request for an interview?</p>

13

<p>Are they interviewing selectively? Can you tell us your stats, as much as you see appropriate?</p>

14

<p>@anunay can you please tell some basic stats, some major achievements etc so that atleast we would know if they are selectively interviewing or not.</p>

<p>woah!
congratz , btw how’d you get the times scholar 2012?
Would my school transcripts effect a lot on the chances of admission??</p>

17

<p>Wow that is excellent. Which school are you from?</p>

18

<p>That’s inconsequential. I’m from a reputed school in New Delhi.</p>

19

<p>So that’s it then. We others don’t have to wait till pi day.
Was it in person or via skype?</p>

<p>@eltanin…Hold your breath…till pi day anyways:)
@Arunay…I helped organize the IESO…So nice too meet you:)
But very surprising that you got so many math awards and yet not 800 on Math 2??</p>
