| skidmore interview
I had my Skidmore interview--evaluative, not informative--at the end of the summer. My interviewer was an assistant admissions dean, very nice, we talked for almost an hour. basic questions--asked about HS, ECs, what do you like about skidmore, what are you looking for in a school, etc. the one that caught me a bit off-guard was "tell me about your family"--wasn't really expecting that, but whatever-everything else went extremely well.
Two of my friends who interviewed at Yale and Manhattanville said to beware of the "what words would you use to describe yourself" questions--they just want adjectives, no explanations. I'm glad they didn't ask me that!
