Congratulations Be sure to search this thread and the 2012 thread for advice on how best to prepare for the interview. Feel free to send questions my way as well.

does anyone know what percentage of applicants get an interview invite and what percent of interviewed get admission?

thanks, rwkTX! I also wonder if the program has experienced a drop in number of applications to the program. The entire finance sector took a brutal beating over the last few years and I'm sure b-schools also felt the pinch (Columbia, for example, saw applications drop by double digits this year)

Yes, I actually got an interview invite and we'll try get the interview out of the way asap. I really want to know whether I'm in or not, by the end of the year. I don't want this process to drag into January

Hi Guys

Would you mind sharing your profiles? I applied in R2 and am not sure why I haven't received an invite yet. I have 5 years relevant experience and a good enough GMAT score. A little tense now

oh ok. So you're based in London. Problem is I've got into another program and have to accept by Dec 15th

I'm not sure about any change in applications but can ask the admissions committee and see what their responses. I also don't have details on the profile, but my estimation would be that 75-80% are self-funded and 20-25% are sponsored.

big congrats!

do you mind sharing your interview experience?

Hi all,
Got a phone call yesterday, and I'm in!

As I mentioned in my previous post, I had to travel abroad for the interview. That meeting was last weekend. My interviewer holds a senior position in one of the top firms in my field, so that made me nervous a bit. However, the meeting itself was quite relaxed. The discussion focused mainly on my work experience and what I have said on my application essays. He asked me to explain my job functions/responsibility (basically going over my CV), clarify/elaborate more on some of the statements I made on the essays (i.e. how MiF will benefit me, why now, why work in finance etc.) and discuss my experience studying abroad. We also talked about electives I'm interested in and current issue in finance and at this point there's a question thrown in involving finance theory. The interview lasted about an hour. On Monday I got e-mail from the school that they have received interview report, and yesterday I got the good news

Based on my experience, my advice would be to know what you've told the school and be able to explain/ back up your point. What I did was to read over my CV and my essays again and see whether there are any statements that might not be clear to reader. Also prepare to discuss your choice of electives. As a side note, the alumni also receive candidate's transcript in the interview package and in my case he commented on quantitative classes I have taken during university when I mentioned that I plan to pursue a quantitative-heavy study.

Good luck to everyone! Hopefully I'll meet you all in August next year.

I would be interested in the 2012 Employment report for MiFs... It's almost 2013 while the previous class graduated in June 2012...
