CASE STUDY: MIT interviews really that important in admissions?

<p>Interview: NO! I had no clue about the Dec. 10th deadline to schedule one. I was so bummed, I really thought I wouldn’t get in if I didn’t have an interview. I emailed my EC ASAP and she never emailed me back. I then called her a week later which forced her to email me back and she said that she wasn’t willing to interview anymore :(. I emailed MIT in like late January or something and told them that I tried to get an interview but that my EC wasn’t interviewing anymore (I didn’t tell them that I missed the 12/10 deadline!) and they responded with a fairly standard reply. </p>
