Interview Experiences
- Dartmouth College
- Performance/Outcome: 8/10 interview was very question and answer formatted, but had very in-depth conversations about the college that went above what I thought I would get from an interview
- Tufts University
- Performance/Outcome: 6/10 interview was super chill and mostly informative, but walked out feeling as if I hadn't shown my true personality
