<p>Are they 60 year olds and very conservative? </p>
<p>I was thinking about writing a very off color humored essay thats so dirty Mike Rowe would be ashamed</p>
<p>I really hope the majority have a colorful sense of humor... Has anyone here met adcoms?</p>
<p>They’re very often college students or recent graduates of that college.</p>
<p>Go for it, man! :-)</p>
<p>I’ve always imagined them as them as old people (or men) like in Legally blonde…lol…</p>
<p>I’ve heard that adcoms also can have students review your application and put an input.</p>
<p>I can’t claim that the Johns Hopkins admissions officers are totally representative of all of the admissions officers, but this should give you an idea: [Hopkins</a> Insider Admissions Staff Profiles](<a href=“http://blogs.hopkins-interactive.com/blog/category/admissions-staff-profiles/]Hopkins”>http://blogs.hopkins-interactive.com/blog/category/admissions-staff-profiles/)</p>
<p>They’re like normal people, but evil.</p>
<p>^ Yes this haha</p>
<p>I always thought of them as being young — of the admission officers I did meet, many were around their late thirties.</p>
<p>They aren’t even human.</p>
<p>^are they… plants :O?</p>
<p>Most of the ones I have met/talked to are in their 30s or 40s and are fairly legit. They seem entirely unlike the people who answer the phones.</p>
