I managed to cram some stuff in. I am pretty sure I was looking around and ranting like an idiot.

Hope you get the good news soon! I felt my interview went absolutely horribly and was accepted. LikeLive is a truly terrible thing.
+1 on all counts

Wanted to throw in a couple questions I got I didn't already see posted. Seem pretty generic in hindsight but caught me off guard a little as I expected more straight up "why law" type stuff

What will you add to the community?

What do you expect from your Cornell Law education? (after why Cornell so I felt I couldn't reuse stuff)

Anyway someone can collect all questions that have been encountered in the robot interview and add those to the OP?

1) Why Cornell?

2) Why Law?

3) What do you expect from a Cornell Law Education?

4) What will you add to the community?

5) What draws you to Ithaca (besides the fact that Cornell is there)?

6) What advice would you give to someone who is selecting their undergraduate major and how does this apply to what you selected?

7) Why did you select your undergraduate institution?

8.) What type of personality do you work best with?

9) What are 3 adjectives your friends would use to describe you?

10) If you had one day to do anything at all, what would you do?

11) What is your ideal instructional class size and why?

12) What motivates you intrinsically?

13) Describe two things that make a great teacher.

People that have done the interview can PM me any questions they've gotten/seen that aren't on this list. Or they can PM the OP if that's okay with him. Otherwise I can just put a list together, send it to OP and he can update the 1st post.

Also admitted, did my interview ~1 week ago.

ETA: LikeLive was super weird and terrible, had video problems.

And had one more weird question - "If you had one day to do anything, what would it be?"

Congrats guys! Still UR2 as of 12/9/14. Anyone admitted today who didn't do an interview?
