💬 Interview Questions

What is one of the specific questions they asked you?

"Do your mother and father still live together?"
"How much do you work while in school?"
"What other schools have you applied to?"

What was the most interesting question?

"Tell me three things about yourself that you want me to know." (This, at the end of an hour-long interview with a Clinical Psychologist.)

What was the most difficult question?

The interviewer (the asst. Dean for Admissions) was very very personal, nearly too personal, and at times, it felt like he was probing too much. He was a clinical psychologist, and this interview was nearly cliche for the type of introspective grilling one would expect.
