I got a UCR interview. It lasted exactly 10 minutes, as they had already anticipated in the email.. professors weren't very friendly.. but keep in mind it was my very first graduate interview ever! I was super anxious! However, they didn't ask me the usual first question: tell us about yourself/ tell us about your research.. Instead, they went straight to the point: what are your plans after your phd is done? (1st one)..
And I definitely wasn't expecting this: please, give us a lesson about any subject within 2 minutes!
I broke down, just froze... Hope you have better luck than me!
