Student A
Student B
Student C
(Supposed to be 20 minutes, but was more like 28 minutes in reality. My interviewer was Ann Perry (Associate Dean). She mentioned in the beginning that although the admissions team had read my application in its entirety, she had only read my resume (so more context was needed for some questions)).

Student E
Chicago Interview with admissions rep- ~30 minutes long, much more relaxed and casual than many on Reddit described, more conversational than I expected

Northwestern University
Northwestern gives you three options: an in-person on-campus interview, an in-person alumni interview, or an automated online interview via a video client called Kira. You’ll be asked to respond verbally to six different questions. For each question, you’ll have thirty seconds of prep time followed by sixty seconds of talking time. Four of the questions are picked randomly from a large bank; they often focus on your experience of (1) working on a team, (2) speaking to people who disagree with you, or (3) failing. Two of the questions are always the same: “Why Northwestern?” and “Is there anything else you’d like the admissions committee to know about you?” (or something very similar).
Northwestern also performs a waitlist interview via Kira. Last year, it consisted of four verbal-response questions (with thirty seconds of prep time followed by one minute of response time) and two written-response questions (with fifteen minutes of response time).
