<p>Hello,
Because of the fact that my local ECs have reached their applicant caps, I was assigned to do a Skype Interview instead. Does anyone have any experience with that? Is it somehow (much) different from a face-to-face meeting? Also, I am worried about technical problems coming up, as I live in Europe and I presume that the EC will be in the USA: might that be detrimental to the interview quality? Would you recommend perhaps contacting the MIT and asking to be assigned to an EC who maybe lives farther away (which would mean that I'd have to fly)?</p>
<p>Mmm, I also was assigned for a skype interview.
I’m in Europe and my guess is my EC lives in China or USA…</p>
<p>I also worry about technical problems. I’m not sure but my Internet speed is 6Mb/s download and 512 kb/s upload…Is it enough?</p>
<p>Edit:
btw, does anyone know how much interview are import during admission? I mean - let’s say someone has <700 points on SAT. Can EC say: “Guys, no matter what - you have to admit him”?</p>
<p>bump bump bump</p>
