What a fun thread! How about this one in response to "why are you interested in our school?"

"Because everyone needs a safety school."

Ouch!

Ohohoh, I know:

Interviewer: You mentioned in your supplemental that our school is your top choice - why is that?

Student: Oh yeah, I did say that, but honestly, I can't remember why anymore.... It's the same reason I tell my dates they are gorgeous - I think it's what they want to hear, and it will help me get in!
