<p>“wake likes personable students, which they discover through interviews.”</p>
<p>I think college interviews tend to have marginal effect on college admissions. They might make a difference where a kid is on the bubble with regard to admission, but doubt they would result in admitting a student who is not otherwise academically elligible for admission. In Wake’s case, they also acccept “on-line” interviews–which, in my opinion, really do little to reveal much, if anything, about how “personable” a student is. My suspision is that the previous poster was admitted to Wake based far more on his other achievements than on the resutls of his interview.</p>
