maybe they already know that you have a lot to give, and were just checking that why would such a high-calibre candidate join Stanford...and probably your answer just made things crystal clear....i have a good feeling that you stand a good chance.

good luck !

Oh sweetie... so sorry to hear you're feeling like this. Try and not worry too much, not much you can do now. If it's meant to be, it'll happen, if not, you're destined for bigger and better things :-)

No worries. I know from a reliable source (a Stanford graduate who assisted the admissions committee with the review process) that the interview does not mean much. I was told by another reliable source (even more reliable than the first) that the interview was implemented to be a "jerk" test. I'm sure it went well enough to indicate that you're not a jerk. :)

Ditto with divinemissn. I know we always replay these interviews in our heads over and over "Why didn't I say that?! And why did I say this?"

But you delivered a lot of info in 30 min, and I know you did an awesome job. :-) Now it's time to take your wife out and relax... Pat yourself on the back for a successfully completed interview with Stanford!

Cheers!

Hey,

Sandy (he of the BW forums) believes the Stanford interview has very little importance in the entire interview process. I think you shouldn't worry about it. Good luck!

As Sandy on BW says, "interviews at Stanford mean squat." So dont sweat on it and keep the faith. All the best.
