yayyyy interview!

<p>sarcastic?</p>

<p>Actually, maybe you're right, nomad. I don't know. Maybe she only said that to me because there are none available in my area. I can see it being more inportant for people that live in an area in which they can be scheduled.</p>

<p>nono not being sarcastic</p>

<p>hm it's sunday already tho
did u have ur interview?</p>

<p>i am goign to have it in 2 hours! Dam i dont know why i want to go northwestern!!!! tTs my first choice and still ..rrrrr and i dont want to sound dumb and say because of its reputation and excellent engineering school.</p>

<p>yeah i know what you mean. it's my first choice too</p>

<p>altho my reasons aren't really the same as yours (applying to wcas)</p>

<p>Ok the meeting went ok i think. We spoke for an hour and half and he said it was 30 mins above the norm and said it was good becuase we had a lot to talk about. I actually liked it. </p>

<p>Well as far as questions were concerned they were really basic, why northwestern, cocurricular activities specifics about them, just show them who you are i guess. Oh yeah the one i liked was the biggest challenge i have faced till now. Think abt this one. I dont think they buy your rags to riches story ( in sports, academics or literally).
Best of luck ! </p>

<p>and your welcome:)</p>

<p>hehe, thanks. i'm glad u had a good interview!</p>

<p>no problems, let me know how yours went</p>

<p>i will! it's in.. it's next saturday.. mm. no.. in two weeks. lol</p>

<p>I had my interview yesterday. It was kinda awkward because i stuttering because i was trying to think of questions to ask.</p>

<p>ahh u didn't prepare questions? i'm sure it turned out alright.. do you remember anything your interviewer asked you?</p>

<p>Hah first rule of hand, please done prepare more than 2 questions you reaaly want to ask. THinking and asking questions on the spot is better and i think the interviewer like those.</p>

<p>I've been an alum interviewer for Northwestern. It's not a big deal. The interviewer doesn't know anything about you except your name and high school. Unless you start using profanity, haven't showered in 5 weeks, or act totally unbalanced, the interviewer's opinion won't make or break you.</p>

<p>My dad "thinks its a good idea to wear a tie and jacket..."....which means I have to....Is this really bad???</p>

<p>I really don't think it's necessary-it's not like it's a business interview. I'd be suprosed if interviewers expect kids to wear ties. At the hotel presentation I went to--the local alumni chapter head who sets up the interviews wore a Hawaiin shirt and jeans. Just take your tie off when you get to your interview-Dad won't know.</p>

<p>noooo dont, if its in a coffeehouse like mine wear casual, your interviewver will be wearing a northwestern tee shirt!!</p>

<p>Oops..spell check..."surprised", not "suprosed"...but you know what I mean</p>

<p>K...thanks!</p>

<p>In my interview with a Hopkins admissions rep (it was supposed to be a group, but I was the only one who showed up) I came up with a bunch of questions on the spot and it was a much more interesting conversation than if i had planned 15 questions...it flowed a lot better....BUT, do prepare some questions or have an idea of what you want to know about....and remember, you are talking to an alumn...not an admissions rep.</p>

<p>I just had my interview...I think it went pretty well...</p>

<p>I'll answer questions if anyone has one coming up..</p>
