You’re lucky! Our school teachers never told us what was coming, though they did help us in the practicals. I don’t know why they even have practicals…it’s such a farce. We don’t even learn anything…</p>
<p>My P’ton interview has been switched to Saturday</p>
<p>so brown interviews anyone… they are conducting email interviews… man how sick can that be… three questions emailed to applicants and to be replied within one full day…</p>
<p>Dunno what purpose woud it ever serve…</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>Have u got any email from them?</p>
<p>yup confirming the information and stuff…</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>“they are conducting email interviews”
Ok people…hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha this has to be the biggest f’in stupidity i have seen so far in the pain in the @ss admission process.</p>
<p>what’s the point of essays then?</p>
<p>i dunno what they want out of it and well they will only give us 3 question to answer that also same to all partticipants and well we are given more than 1 day to answer back… highly sick…</p>
<p>Then well they urge us just to giv info and not be too meticulous on the grammar and language as they wont see that… Amazingly stupid</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>It probably means they aren’t interested… They have alumnus all over india (atleast the major cities), so they could easily give you a proper interview if they wanted to… The interviewer obviously won’t have time to interview everyone who applies, so they prioritise</p>
<p>Thank god or whoever is up there… that I had a face to face interview…
I am really bad to show them my fantastic personality in words :D:D:D</p>
<p>the email has been sent to 15 ppl … from throughout the country… and well noone as of what i have heard have got even an interview in India ( except ofcourse the ED people)… so well what does this translate to…coz well from India noone seems to be getting the Interview and the only people who are , are getting this email one…</p>
<p>Also the email didnt come off from an individual but from the alumni orgnisation and from a person who said he was the head of this asian region high schuls… from alumni…</p>
<p>Dunno what this all means…</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>Everyone who i know who applied last year got interviews… Doubt they’ve changed the system this year…</p>
<p>Btw the head of the asian alum thing for brown is a she, not a he… whose the guy who sent the email?</p>
<p>Dear Brown University Applicant:</p>
<p>I am the Regional Director of the Brown Alumni Schools Committee (BASC) for the Area encompassing the country where you went to school or are currently residing. BASC is the alumni organization that conducts interviews of undergraduate applicants to Brown University. As you know from the application material, an interview is not mandatory. However, if you would like an opportunity to have an interview, I can conduct one via email with you.</p>
<p>You are receiving this email because of the limited number of alumni interviewers used by Brown University to conduct its application interviews and this means we will not be able to arrange and hold a personal or telephone interview at this point before the approaching submission date.<br>
Sincerely,</p>
<p>Wendy Pollard Metzger’81
Regional Director - Asia, Oceania & Indian Sub-Continent</p>
<p>And well yes its a SHE … oops…
this is the parrt of the message i got…</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>
Around that time there was a blizzard and heavy snowing in the Cambridge area. That might have been it.</p>
<p>^^ maybe.</p>
<p>well, they’ve all reached now, so its all good.</p>
<p>If like you said the email was sent to only 15 ppl across india, theres obviously some ppl getting face to face interviews cuz way more than 15 ppl applied… Ill check with the people i know who applied to see if they’ve got an interview…</p>
<p>Yay! Debojit won the Zee’s India ki Voice 
My favourite ;)</p>
<p>wellll… do check and answer… we have been given the 3 questions and are now to reply…</p>
<p>Man this is sooooo bad. had a power outage today for abt 7 hrs 30 mins… and that to at the peak time of my studying and other activities</p>
<p>:(</p>
<p>SM</p>
<p>Talked to other people i know… theyve got interviews… Talked to the head of BASC for india… she told me that people get interviews, but they have interviewers only in delhi and bombay… theyre not going to fly people down to other places for interviews… thats why you probably got the email…</p>
<p>Yayyyy!!! I Got Thru Michigan Ann Arbor…!!!..</p>
