So I have a real and very funny true Seminary interview story. Basically when I was a senior in high school a bunch of girls in my grade including me applied to a certain seminary. My friend comes in and the rabbi asked her why she chose this seminary and she said you know I really didnt want to go to a seminary where they ask all those weird questions like if you were an animal which would you be and why? So the rabbi then says oh should I ask that to the next girl? She says yes and the after her interview another one of my friends go in and the first question he asks is if you were an animal which would you be and why and then the rabbi kept a straight face for a minute before laughing while the girl was struggling to come up with an answer and ended up so confused its a moment my friend and laugh about often now 🙂
@interjection: Tomer Devorah is by no means considered a bais yaakov seminary. There are a mix of girls coming from public high schools to bais yaakov high schools. I know for a fact it’s not even pretending to be a bais yaakov there is no uniform that marks all the bais yaakov seminaries and the classes are more relaxed ( aka no testing besides midterms and finals really) I know people who have gone and no one would say it a bais yaakov still they are a great warm and caring school who are willing to accept girls who couldn’t go other places for various reasons a girl I know switched into TD in march from another bais yaakov seminary and loved it and went back shana bet so @higuys u never know give it a try!
Hi first of all I feel terrible for your predicament. It’s really terrible that the Rav won’t take you back. But unless you are set on going to a bais yaakov seminary you should try Tomer Devorah. It is a great school and has an amazing staff. Hope this helps!!
