<p>My Georgetown interview lasted 3 1/2 hours! I'm guessing this is a good thing, but my interviewer seemed to enjoy provoking me into intentionally controversial subjects (war in Iraq, education reform, universal healthcare, etc.). </p>
<p>My question--or rather, my challenge--is this: Has anyone ever heard of an interview longer than this?</p>
<p>wow. that's super long. my longest one was little longer than an hour... shortest one with admission officer was about 15 minutes or so...</p>
<p>i guess it's a good thing since if he/she wasn't interested in you, he/she wouldn't have talked with you for 3 1/2 hours..</p>
<p>Wow thats really good... mine was about 45 minutes
We did talk about controversial subjects..
He asked alot about business issues since im applying to MSB. </p>
<p>By the way was yours a lawyer?</p>
<p>Yeah, I've had interviews with GW and Duke, but they were all the normal length (45 min-1hr).</p>
<p>He wasn't a lawyer, though.</p>
<p>My Duke interview was 1hr 30min and he was a lawyer... lol</p>
<p>i got a confirmation of part 1 december 5th..... how long did it take before they contacted you for an interview?</p>
<p>yeah, I got confirmation for mine on Dec. 1st and I still haven't heard from my guy, even though it says 3 weeks. It only lists an address so I'm gonna write him a letter tomorrow, I guess.</p>
<p>I think that you might want to let the admissions people know in a very friendly way that your interview was so long. </p>
<p>" My interview was 3.5 hours. I enjoyed it and am more excited about GT than ever."</p>

<p>Mine was one hour 40 minutes for Georgetown for EA. I got deferred... I thought it went well, but was really boring. The guy talked for about 20 minutes on EA/ED and how it was unfair against poor kids who couldn't visit, I guess. I got extremely confused. He just asked me about school stuff, which sorta angered me, cuz all that stuff they will see on the app. Usually i spend the majority of my interviews (rice and georgetown) explaining what IB is why I'm not in AP.</p>
<p>I sent in my personal data sheet in late Novermber, and just got my interview sheet a few days ago. If it helps, the sheet is an envelope-sized gray sheet of paper that has a name, address, and phone # of your interviewer on it. You're supposed to call them.</p>
<p>But I heard that interviews are not weighted as much</p>
<p>My longest interview so far was about two hours (yep, a lawyer), and the shortest was probably 20 minutes. 3 1/2...that's a lotta talking.</p>
<p>mine was about an hour, but we talked for much less b/c he kept having to take phone calls (he was a doctor.)</p>
<p>my admissions officer that i like said ure wrong 242488 :(</p>
<p>pepgirly? I'm wrong about interviews not carrying alot of weight? Well I said I heard...</p>
<p>myweatherby-hm well now I feel bad I sent my interviewer a letter pestering him. but it has been 4 weeks!! better late than never I guess.</p>
<p>Does anyone know when the interviews have to be completed by??</p>
<p>my interviewer didn't show up! I'm positive I had the right time and place (I wrote it down immediately and had even checked with him). I called him to see what happened, but he hasn't responded. This has all happened within the last three days-- do you think I should call the second contact person listed?? thanks!</p>
<p>i had my interview back in.... oh gosh, idk early nov. maybe? mine could not have been more than 20 min. i thought that it went very well, she was very nice and seemed to like me, but we didn't talk about very much. well, it was my first real interview. i hope that that's okay... 3.5 hours, that's just crazy!</p>
