Thanks
gbengoose and

I've shared some details on my background:
Work Experience: 2y in a Big 4 firm and 3y at MBB
Education: one of the top engineering institutes in India
GMAT: 760
My profile didn't change much since I last applied - same GMAT score, no promotions etc. So, I focused on a few interesting projects I took up, and thought a lot more about why I want to go to Columbia and what I want to do post my MBA. The interview was quite conversational - general questions on professional accomplishments, why MBA, why Columbia etc.
To be frank, I also struggled a lot with CBS Essay 3. You should talk about what you think (from a personal angle) is unique about you. IMO, it depends much more on how you articulate that.
And, wishing you all the best!
