It is vital you schedule your interviews strategically to optimize your chance of success at your top choice schools. You want to build a foundation of experience while ensuring you get to your top schools as soon as possible. First and foremost, don’t delay scheduling your interviews. The later you schedule them, the worse your chances of acceptance due to rolling admissions. That said, if you receive multiple interview invites, it’s critical to be strategic with how you schedule them.
You don’t want your first interview to be at your top school because this is when you’ll have the least experience. Schedule lower tier options first to get a feel for how interviews are conducted and how you perform under pressure.
While you don’t want to schedule your top interviews first, don’t schedule them last either. Placing competitive programs later in the interview season gives other applicants a leg up. Take a Goldilocks approach of not too early and not too late when scheduling your most important interviews.
