So I just finished my artistic review for the Drama Program at NYU Tisch. My evaluator wasn’t rude but he wasn’t that friendly either. Anyway, I think I seemed very nervous when talking and I definitely seemed like I didn’t know what to do because the evaluator wasn’t really instructing me or anything… he just told me to do my monologues. So I did. I slated for my dramatic monologue and the performance was okay (I definitely did better in rehearsals). For my comedic monologue, the performance was surely better than my dramatic one but I FORGOT TO SLATE. I was so thrown off by my nerves and I was so confused because my evaluator really didn’t give me any specific instructions beforehand or at least made me feel more comfortable in the audition room. He didn’t even ask to work on my monologues afterwards and in the interview portion, I was trying to be comfortable but I’m not 100% sure my answers made sense because of my NERVES since my evaluator was just cold…
I have high grades (GPA: 3.9) so I hope that factors into the admissions process but I was thinking of getting second thoughts and opinions about my audition experience…

Unfortunately most of us are not talent evaluators. How we I assure you while not all kids but many kids get nervous or freeze during interviews, etc…even performers. I’m sure you’ll find a great program, NYU or otherwise….good luck
