Interviewed with an adcom member. She was super nice and made me really comfortable throughout the meeting. You should be ready for very specific questions from your application materials. I think Stern puts a lot weight on candidate’s recruitment strategy, so be prepared. Other than that, just go out and show your research and interest into the program. Good luck to everyone.
