I have applied to materials chemistry/ inorganic materials. I am not sure what is the purpose for such a short interview. My TOEFL is 110 which I guess is on the lower side. But I know for sure that the questions also get a bit technical.
I would not worry if I did not get an interview because its still pretty early. I guess it works in waves,
@Herbert West Its not an acceptance. I just got a mail requesting for a short 15 minute phone interview from the department and they haven't mentioned anything about the visit weekends. I am not quite sure about how they judge a candidate from a 15 min phone conversation, so a bit anxious. Just wondering what these guys are looking for !
I am an international applicant for fall 2017. Got an interview request from MIT Chemistry. Does anyone know what these guys look for during such interviews ? I really appreciate any tips and suggestions.
