<p>Short and simple: contacted interviewer before Dec. 10 deadline on Saturday. Gave it a week. No response. Now what?</p>
<p>Email interview at mit dot edu – they’ll get you fixed up.</p>
<p>Thank you! Are you a current student?</p>
<p>I’m an alum – I graduated in 2006. (Kinda feels like a million years ago at this point.)</p>
<p>Hahah, any advice? My approach: be as original and “me” as possible. I’m not trying fit a specific mold. A) MIT has no mold. B) they will catch on to me trying to hard to seem “different.” My unconventionality should be conveyed with originality.</p>
