<p>OMG Franklinbrown are you serious LMAO</p>

<p>My interviewer told me that there is PROBABLY at most 3 people in Oregon! LOL Sorry! I didn't want to make anyone feel bad..But he said in that case (or either way, the interview is not THAT important)</p>

<p>I'm just disappointed that Columbia interviews doens't have as much weight as it does in other colleges...</p>

<p>My interview was mostly composed of my question for my interviewer...it's like 65 % of the things we discussed were sparked the question i asked him, and I guess he got an impression of who I am by asking the questions.</p>

<p>Had interview today..@starbucks it was about 30min and went sooo fast
I did most talking and the interviewee was pretty ok...I'm happy that Im over with it..^^</p>

23

<p>Hah yeah, there aren't too many here and I think I know who all of them. When the admission rep had a reception here, three or so alums of the College showed up.</p>

24

<p>damn 30 minutes? Mine lasted like a good hour...I don't think it makes a difference though</p>

25

<p>I had my interview yesterday and it lasted about 45 mins. Kinda cool, not very much q and a and a good portion of philosophy. Pretty fun and insightful into Columbia. Good luck to all!</p>

26

<p>I live in South Florida and submitted my part I for ED on Oct.10. Haven't been contacted yet--weird.</p>

27

<p>Do engineering students get interviewed?</p>

28

<p>yes...............</p>

29

<p>Yeah.........LOL. why not?</p>

30

<p>I got my interview today. Its on nov 9 at a Starbucks in DC</p>

31

<p>Well, engineering students don't have to take the swim test, so I guess Columbia knows that their engineers are lacking in some catagories :p</p>

32

<p>the "official reason" is that the engineering students are supposed to build a bridge instead of swimming ;-)</p>

33

<p>If i didnt get contacted about the interview does that mean that they havent received my application yet?</p>

34

<p>cb--no they might just not have someone in ur area whos available to do interviews</p>

35

<p>lol i live in Queens NY, I highly doubt that theory.</p>

36

<p>Haha cb...dun worry it's all about accomendation, they'll get to you</p>

37

<p>miss competent.. where do you live?</p>

<p>I also had my interview (last week).. the alumnus who interviewed me said i was his first interviewee!</p>

<p>I live in singapore.. and i sent my part 2 in at the start of october so i think that's why i got my interview so early.. we talked for about 45/50 minutes.. I think it went well..
Do you think the interview has an impact on the application in any way?...(neg or pos?)</p>

38

<p>i had an interview friday! it was around 20 minutes, and it went very well. don't stress out, they're not out to get you.</p>

39

<p>i live in canada. i think i was his first interviewee too.
but i think the interviews have much less to do with the application than other things. It's ranked like 5th after marks, sat scores, ecs, etc. so i don't know. I know the interviewers write up a report and send it to new york..i think its mostly positive - if the interviewer likes you, it helps.</p>

<p>misscompetent, where in canada do you live? I live in toronto, and I've just been contacted via email for an interview. =&lt;/p>
