Do you guys know which schools require a writing sample during the interviews? I remember hearing that UMich and SUNY Buffalo need one.

Do you remember off the top of your head what the essay question was at Pitt?
thanks

I was there on Oct.31. They interview around 60 people a day. The writing topic for that day was "what's the most influential teacher in your life and why?" hope it helps 🙂

P.S. they don't really care about the writing. They only gave 15 mins. Somebody wrote just a little paragraph and somebody wrote alot. doesn't really matter. no stress.

San Antonio does as well (at least as of last year's interviews). Just a short paragraph and they gave us about 10 minutes.
 
San Antonio's essay doesn't affect your acceptance. At least that's what the lady said. It's just a survey evaluating your opinion of the interview. The question was "what was the most reassuring thing that you experienced today?"
 
How was the Michigan's writing part??? Any feedback on Michigan's writing part??
thanks
