Calling all UCLA-Anderson Applicants(2015 Intake)Class of 17

Hey everyone, I just had my interview on campus and here's a quick report to help relieve some anxiety of those interviewing soon + the waiting hopefuls:

Earlier reports from last year's interviews were very accurate for my interview (https://blog.clearadmit.com/category/int ... -anderson/). The demeanor of the interviewer, overall atmosphere, and questions were by and large the same.

Interviewer was a second year student. Cordial. Relaxed. Gave feedback throughout responses. Felt like a conversation except for the intermittent pauses where he jotted down notes. None of the questions caught me off guard. If you review the questions from the above link, you'll be set. Remember to have specific examples in mind as you prepare. The interview lasted about 30 minutes. This includes about 5-10 minutes at the end to ask any questions. We talked about life at UCLA and what his path was going forward, because that's what I wanted to know. I feel pretty confident but who knows what metrics were being used to gauge how this went. Now it's just a waiting game.

Hope this helps and good luck to everyone, whether you are waiting to interview or for a response. Let me know if you have any questions.

just got interview email tonight

Received an interview invitation tonight. Looks like a wave is coming.

Very excited.

tarunsengar backspacebar - I just got my invite last night as well, and this was the first question that popped into my head. Please let me know if you hear from the adcom. I think that for the degree certificate, a photocopy with a seal from the university should be fine. And official transcripts can be sent as it is (or do we need an offiial stamp on this as well?). My problem is that my consolidated marks memo has absolutely no space where I can get an official stamp. But it's a good problem to have. I'm excited to be interviewing with Anderson. Good luck you guys!

Got invited to interview. Super excited.

Also very happy and excited to receive an interview invite. Although every single Skype session spot is "registration closed" or "this interview is full"......

Anybody else seeing this before I just reach out to Adcom?

Just got an interview invite as well. Does anyone know what % of people they accept from their invites? Their acceptance rate is around 25% so I assume they probably interview half of all candidates and then take half of the interviewed applicants?

Just got my interview request yesterday afternoon!

ohh boy ! Now I am feeling the heat. The 2nd wave has already started and I am busy with my f5 button

Though I don't have an interview invite yet, but I strongly believe that no college gives extra degree certificate unless you have lost the old one and submit a police report of that!!

hi sachdix ! i just got curious from your profile. Are you working in any Ibank or prop trading firm in India ?

I was looking at last year's forum and noticed that the first 2 waves has most of the invites for R1 and then it tapers away..so if we don't get it in this week, chances are slim..Thoughts?

Can't say much about this speculation. I guess it's futile. The adcom must've up their decision so we just have to trust ourselves and keep moving forward
