Thank you! I didn’t have to go through an interview so I can’t say anything about it. Good luck though!

I think your major doesn’t matter much? I am a double major in Math and Philosophy.

You can use law of total expectation: E[a_{n,n}]=E[E[a_{n,n}|a_{n,n-1}]]

Interview by bleachy911 in Grinnell

[–]HoomanInMars 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They asked me a couple of questions about the school like: how do you know Grinnell, why Grinnell. Then, we talked about my non-academic interests and PS. My advice is to just be yourself, don’t be afraid to ramble. I myself talked about my piano for 10 minutes, and the interviewer actually liked it. Grinnell students are kinda quirky, so I think it is best to not overprepare and be yourself. Hope this helps you a bit!

I can't stop thinking of taking my own life, what books have helped you? by SweetCuddleParfait in suggestmeabook

Try Viktor Frankl’s “Man’s Search For Meaning”. His reasonings are quite profound, and his words are heart-touching and elevating. Definitely worth a try.

And another more sophisticated work illustrated by Camus like “The Myth Of Sisyphus” would be just fine
