Just Had my Interveiw

Finished my BGO interveiw today and it went incredible. I was confident answered all his questions, we chatted for almost an hour afterwards and just had some great vibes. My question is how much of an affect will a good interview have on admissions chances.

Finished my BGO interveiw today and it went incredible. I was confident answered all his questions, we chatted for almost an hour afterwards and just had some great vibes. My question is how much of an affect will a good interview have on admissions chances.

We always say a BGO interview won’t get someone into USNA and it won’t keep someone out unless there was something egregious. Overall, we have no idea on its impact, because USNA does not publish its scoring. If I had to speculate, I would say its scoring overall is fairly minimal. What it can do is help round out an app for things that might not jump out in an app elsewhere, or why there is a gap in an app, or something unique about a candidate.
