<p>Interviews definitely allow you to learn more about UChicago, and they get to know you as well. I had an interview last week with a recent graduate of 2007. It was just FANTASTIC. The interviewer was a very typical Chicagoan, at least he is the person that I would love to meet at UC. He first introduced himself and then asked me to talk a bit about my background. I told him about my subject choices which is quite untypical for a student in my city. Then we talked about the Core and stuff. He asked me a question - what do you think abot the city. This was the first question he asked me (and he only asked two, seriously). I kept on talking and talking and was thrilled to know that he totally agreed with me! He said this kind of prompt is common at Chicago. I guess UC interviewers want to know how you THINK. so just be yourself and show them how you THINK. It was really fun. We talked for an hour, but only because the restaurant is closing.</p>
<p>Btw, I dont live in US. So I got an alumni interview.</p>
