The campus is depressing as fuck. Homeless people all around the campus. People playing the guitar for spare change. Some group of people chanting 'Trump is fascist!' or something like that.
Apart from that though, my interview went well. These are the questions I was asked.
What are your career goals?
What did you learn from ____ (something they asked from my application)?
Do you plan to do research at Cal? If so, what fields interest you?
Some more questions about my application..
What other colleges did you apply to?
Any questions?
Have some questions prepared and also read up on the research interests and fields of the professor that interviews you!
Good luck to everyone that has it this Saturday/Sunday!

If you were invited for an interview, you have been accepted into UC Berkeley. Congratulations!
The interview is friendly and not particularly difficult, and it seems most semifinalists who present themselves decently well receive the scholarship. Your interviewer may or may not be related to your major/field of interest, so be prepared for both. See Interviews section.
Uc Berkeley Regents Interview Reddit
Getting the Regents scholarship comes with two main advantages in addition to a few other perks.
You will get a monetary scholarship that will depending on your financial need. For some, this is just a couple of thousand, but from what I have heard, a few friends have gotten a very substantial part of their tuition waived.
You will have priority enrollment in all of your courses. This may not sound like a big deal, but at Berkeley desirable classes and class times fill up very quickly. Courses are selected in phases well before the semester begins. If you are a regents scholar, the times for your phases are significantly earlier than everyone else in the university - even earlier than some seniors barring athletes. This will make course selection much less stressful and let you build that perfect schedule that you want.

can anyone provide information on the Regents interview (especially for EECS) - are they likely to ask you to elaborate on stuff in your application (e.g. a club you listed but didn't write about in essays) - do they ask technical questions? - What specific aspects of uc berkeley will they ask you about such as clubs or programs? - are they going to ask a lot about what you've done / what you plan to do related to your major - in general what types of questions do they ask--future plans or about your personality I am grateful for any advice/experience shared.

Same here. I'm in the same department as you (bioengineering major).

Also same here, but with Biological Sciences. I was also wondering how formal (or casual) the interview is. Is it more like a job interview-like formality or is it more like a conversation? Also, how detailed do they get with questions? I heard that the interview is around 30 minutes or so (maybe up to 45?). I'm wondering whether they ask multiple general questions or ask a few specific questions.
