All right, I am in a tricky position. I have back-to-back interviews at two different tracks within one program, where I'm very interested in one of the tracks (call it Track A), but have realized that the other track (say Track B) just does not fit with my goals or interests (which have actually become much clearer to me as I've made my way down the interview trail!), and also, I have limited days I can be gone from school in January. If I cancel Track B with decent notice in a polite way, will it harm my reputation among the people who are ranking candidates for Track A? The administrative assistants who scheduled both my appointments made an effort to get them back to back, I think. So obviously people in the tracks all know each other.
If needed I'll just go to both Track A and B interviews, but honestly I'm sure they'd feel the same as I do, and would not want to spend the day interviewing a candidate whose goals and interests are so different from the focus of their program.
Any advice? Thanks!
