too many interviewers live in their own little world. If this is an older guy, then he’ll probably remember the days when a Yale admission depended on the prep school that you went to. If he’s more recent, he’ll assume that grades and test scores are all that matter, maybe with some ‘character’ mixed in.

This guy probably will give you a great rec, but take his opinion for what it’s worth - very little.
