CASE STUDY: MIT interviews really that important in admissions?

<p>Interview: Yes, but I don’t think it went very well. I don’t really remember it exactly but I remember him asking about why I wanted to go to MIT specifically, but we talked about stuff beforehand so it was more like, “I know partly why already, but why do you want to go to MIT,” and I stumbled over that and just said something about UROPs. And then I told him my educational and career goals and he said that they didn’t really go together very well. But I think he might have been impressed with me knowing about course numbers already, and then my online class. And for a while after my interview, I was really worried that I came off a nerd that programmed all day but didn’t really have any friends. I can’t remember anything bad that happened, but it definitely didn’t feel like 2 hour conversation where I find a best friend like how a lot of interviews on CC seem to sound like.</p>
