Does the role of the interviewer differ b/w school's?
I mean, if you left a bad impression on the person who interviewed you - is their voice the final one amongst a committee of 20-30 people?
Conversely, if you left a really good impression - can interviewers root for you, and how influential would this "rooting" be?
The dilemma I face, is that I just found out that the person who interviewed me will no longer be involved in the admissions process - so when the committee comes to my file, there's no one there to speak on my behalf, just some notes that was written down during the interview...
Is there something I can even do about this? I felt that I really connected with this person, and it was my best interview I felt - but all the committee will get is some notes - rather than an enthusiatic description of how pleasant and humble I am...b/c there's only so much you can express on paper, you can't express "tone" unless you're writing a novel....what a bizzare situation.
