| My interview was awesome. I don't mean that I nailed it or anything. There wasn't anything to nail. It was just me and my interviewer giggling about random things for an hour and talking about Brown sometimes. It was just so much more fun than the other interview I've had so far.
The sad part about it is that Brown is still a total reach for me, and although the interview really really really makes me want to go to Brown, I still don't think I'll get in.
Bummer. |

| Have faith. Maybe it's a good sign that the interviewer really enjoyed speaking with you? |

| According to Brown's policy it doesn't matter either way. |

| I felt the same exact way after my interviewer.
It went more fabulously than I imagined. And when I walked out, I felt 20 pounds lighter.
But I still don't think I'll get in, it's such a reach for ANYBODY.
But whatever. |

| my interview was amazing too. My interviewer and I talked for two and a half hours about everything and anything, hidden in a corner of a cafe situated in the busiest area of New York.
oh how i wish interviews counted for something |

| Mine went the same too. But, like the interviewer said, interviews don't have much bearing on whether you're accepted or not, unless you really screw up. |

| Mine was pretty good, compared to other interviews. I think he got an honest idea of who I am, and I got a more accurate view of Brown students from talking to him.
Why do interviews "mean nothing"?
I've never heard that. |

| Mine was also fantastic. I really wish interviews mattered more... I mean, doesn't a personal impression of us count for what kind of people we are? |

| ^^^ yes but the problem is that most everyone makes an amazing impression.
if everyone gets a 9 or 10 out of 10 on the interview what has the adcom learned about you that could possibly distinguish you from someone else that got an equally glowing review? |

| Wait, do the interviewers actually grade you on a scale of 10? |
