How do you demonstrate 'fit' ? ... is it important to go for the optional 'applicant initiated interview' ? these interviews are usually conducted at the school so we might have to fly in to the school of our choice and give the interview there,,, as you can imagine its not going to be cheap to just fly to NY or some other plc for an interview ... esp from AU. But it seems that this does make your app stand out ? ... is it a good idea to spend 2 or 3 k and fly to three or four of your fav schools and give the interview in person before applying ? or is it better to just wait until the schools contacts you with an alumni interview ?

fit theory
It’s a humbling experience reading other prospective applicants blogs , so many qualified candidates with good stats and yet they get dinged from many schools but there’s always one school which accepts them… I’ve become a convert in the ‘fit theory’ I think I really need to find the right school for myself and convince them that I am the right candidate … lets see how things go you guys will soon know …
I had tried to detox all the baddies out of my system but living in Melbourne its not easy … I have to go to friends for parties or socials and its no possible to refuse a small shiraz or a few crowns (beer) or some other alcoholic drink :) , I used to have a nice excuse ‘I’m driving’ but it does not work when your date is driving :( … so I decided why struggle I guess i wont really loose that many neurons if I have a few beers :) I seem to enjoy it anyways :)), besides i’m already an coffee addict I guess we have to have some addiction in life ? …
So best of luck to me! And lets see how it goes …
