What are your general comments?
The interview was very laid back. Four interviewers with four interviewees, and they went around the table asking questions. They asked very specific questions about our files, which was great. It gave me an opportunity to talk about the really unique things in my file- my undergrad major, my masters program, etc. I was very impressed by all four interviewers, including the student interviewer.
💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
They were all very specific to my file and wouldn't be helpful to others.
How did you prepare for the interview?
Nothing really. I already had two acceptances, so this was just gravy.
What was the most difficult question?
You went to a very small undergraduate college. Do you think you will have a sense of entitlement to extra attention from professors?
What impressed you positively?
The students were very friendly and laid back. The island is very pretty, and being close to all the good things in the bay area is always a good thing.
What impressed you negatively?
The campus buildings are old and unnattractive. At the same time, they have some pretty neat history.
