CLGS Interview worry

Post by nonethewiser »

Hello all, I think I might just be a tad obsessive about this and worrying for nothing.

DD did her interview yesterday and post-interview, I was just being nosey as always. DD said the interviewer looked a little bored while doing her interview and hers was done quite quickly. Please tell me I have nothing to worry about :(

Remember all the interviewers have to interview quite a large numbers of candidates within a 7 to 10 days period so it is not a surprise that they might occasionally look bore. Don't worry!! To get accepted depend on the aggregate of entrance exam, school report and interview. You DD might have done so well that no further assessment is needed! :D

my Ds also had an "interesting" interview yesterday. The interviewer point-blank ignored me. I didn't get a hello or a bye or any other sort of recognition whatsoever, before or after. Felt like I had put on some sort of a magic coat that made me invisible.
For the interview my DS said they had gone over the same paper that he had already done in the exam. Verbally this time obviously. No input from the examiner apparently. Weird? Had he nodded away?
Hope it makes you feel better:)))

Don't worry nonethewiser, I think we're all hanging on to our marbles by a thread (just to mix a few metaphors)!
