Interview
on site interviews in one day. Lunch break in between. Party afterward. Tour visit on the second day. five professors interviewed half an hour each. They were looking for inspired individual who was very into science. High GPA and GRE score would help a lot.
The interview was hosted via zoom back in 2020. The interviewer was really nice, asked some common questions, and was empathetic the whole time. it probably took 15 mins or so.
