UCB MFE Video Essay?

[uofc]

Has anyone done it for the first round yet? I'm a little nervous about this... What exactly do they ask and are there different questions? I know I have another chance to record it but it'd be meaningless if the questions are different...any advice?

Just one advice! Don't worry, there is REALLY nothing unexpected. The question is VERY simple (not technical) and it just tests your ability to speak as far as I understood. I don't think it's good to record for the second time, because it kills the "unpreparedness effect", which is valuable.
