<p>As far as I know, the interviewer has a list of interests/activities that you have indicated participation in. They go through the basic questions like “Why our college?” and then try to have a sort of conversation to see the qualities you possess as a candidate. They’re not too particularly important, but they can be the tipping point when it comes to applicants similar enough in stats.</p>
<p>I just had lunch with a Brown alum interviewer yesterday, so yeah. ._.</p>
