<p>Ahh, I’m just quite nervous about this. And curious, how did it go for current Brown students?
From what I hear, and interview is only there to help you, if you make the most of it, correct?
Any advice?
What types of questions, in general did you get asked?
Were the questions different for Early Decisioners versus Regular Decisioners?</p>
<p>Relax. When I interviewed, over half the time I was the one asking questions, just for the benefit of me learning more about Brown. It really isn't something to stress out about. And I left with the feeling that it would not affect my admission.</p>
<p>The interview is reallly there to put a "face" to the university. It offers you a chance to ask questions in a more personal setting-one on one with a person who is an alumni. When my son was interviewed, he met in the local public library. The alum asked what he wanted to study, what clubs he might be interested in, did he have any questions about Providence? Things like that.It was very low key and I have been told that it doesn't count for much in the actual admittance.</p>
<p>Personally, I felt that my interview was horrible. I was the last of the kids at my school to interview for Brown, and we all had the same person. They came back with war stories they'd tell their grandchildren one day. I was really hyped, but the day of I just felt like she was rushing me and like I didn't get to say everything I wanted to. I was devastated. And what do you know? I got in!</p>
<p>Just let whatever comes out come out.</p>
<p>Mine was really chill. The guy was young (in his 30s) and we mostly just talked about the Open Curriculum (its benefits, drawbacks, effect on the school body, etc.). It was generally just a relaxed chat, although I kinda got the impression that he was trying to sell Brown to me, too. Oh, and I was regular decision, by the way, and I got in.</p>
