Thank you both!!!
Late interview day recap: def my fav interview experience. It was so chill and conversational (and they actually mean it!!). You can tell that the school’s community is tightknit.
There’s two groups of interviews in a day and when group A is going B is on break. They don’t tell you what group until you get on the call in the morning, but both interviews are after informational sessions so later during the “day”
My two 1:1s were both open file, both with faculty (although they say they try their best to give you one student and one faculty depending on who is available). They said there’s a list of questions and they seem to share the list bc my second interviewer said she tried not to overlap. But they only asked a few questions and it was mainly just back and forth talking, it really seemed like they wanted to get to know you and were interested in your activities. I only got 1 hard question each that I really had to think about.
