Penn phone interview?

<p>Hello CCers! Sorry to be making yet another interview post, but here goes.
While I was out at my art class, a Penn interviewer called my house to set up an interview. Of course, this just HAD to come right after I lost my cell, so they couldn't contact me directly and talked to my mom instead, and she told me that they wanted to conduct an interview by phone tomorrow at 11 am (fyi, I live in Korea.), but she isn't English fluent and she said there were some things she missed, so I am a little worried right now. Also, last year's seniors got an actual in-person interview.
Is it normal to conduct phone interviews, and at this time in the application process?
I'm rather nervous! O-o</p>
