Anybody done the Bowdoin optional video?

Would love to get an idea id the types of promts and how you feel it went! thanks!

I did! I didn’t like my first response, so I have two prompt examples. The first one was like, “tell us about a time you gave something up to benefit someone else” (don’t remember the exact phrasing, but the connotation was positive), and the other one was, “tell us about a time you took a risk.” I don’t feel too confident about my answer, and I mostly connect that to the fact that I was nervous and my mind froze after reading the prompt. Note that the timing is super pressing: 30 seconds for prep and 2 minutes for the answer. I would strongly advise opening some “personal interview questions” and practicing, especially right before doing the video - hopefully you’ll be less stunned by the prompt than I was
