Has anyone interviewed yet? Thoughts? What types of questions are there, if you don't mind me asking?

Wow. Just.... wow.
I just did my Yale SOM video interview. Up until this point, I really thought my application had a chance with Yale, although there were many things I wanted to add that I didn't have the room to do. This video interview was going to be the perfect opportunity! Yale SOM would see I am the person for them! I drafted answers to all the interview questions I had seen and felt pretty confident that I could take anything they threw at me.
First two questions... meh. I ran out of time on the second one. Neither of them were too awesome.
Third question... first, I was trying to get my camera/microphone approvals done (for some reason I had to do this before every question, which was obnoxious. I tried to save the settings but obviously it didn't work), which cut into my recording for a few seconds. But that... that wasn't the bad part. The question. They asked me if I agreed or disagreed with someone's statement... and I had no idea what the statement meant. Honestly. You know the videos of the ridiculously unintelligent responses Miss America contestants have in the Q&A section of the pageant? Embarrassingly enough -- that was me. I don't even think I had complete sentences, and none of it made sense. How many times can you repeat the question in your answer without sounding brain dead?
Let's cross our fingers that I get an interview (a miracle!) so I can prove to Yale that I can form coherent arguments. Womp wompppp.
