How long did it take them to schedule the interviews last round? I'm getting nervous as I am leaving the country in a week... :cry:

I totally agree..the wait is excruciatingly long.

And QHSWS...are you thinking of selecting LBS over Stanford?

I guess it's safe to assume that nobody else has received invites given the activity on here..

To those who got dinged in R2, did your e-mail encourage you to reapply next year?

Just interviewed today. Alum was very nice, but definitely asked a lot of questions on leadership. Most of the questions can be found on clear admit wiki & the LBS interview guide.

Presentation topic was chosen for me already, and the topic was not hard.

Good luck!

The Alumnus was great, funny and very enthusiastic.
He really helped me to feel at ease from the beginning of the interview (in his office).

Really enjoyed this interview compared to the others I had...

for some on the wait list, you will be happy that a spot just got available! I decided to decline the offer of LBS. Really hard decision o make ! LBS is a great school!!
But I am happy this will make somebody else happy! I am heading to Stanford GSB for their Sloan Fellow program.

I did. (*keeping fingers crossed*).
I have a lower than average GMAT score but otherwise a great application (so say my recommenders and mentors).
I am praying for at least an interview call and get a fighting chance.

Yep, waiting for a decision here too - Round 3 applicant. Interview was just fine - one of the best I've had I think, despite being the longest by far! We're a week away from decision date and this is when anxiety peaks! Lets see what happens :) Phew, it's been quite a process.

how long did yours last? I had a 2 hour meeting booked, but probably last 45 mins only!

I thought it went fairly well but i was a bit concerned how quickly it went. From my only experience interviewing candidates I know its not usually a good sign

Dont dig too much into it. Maybe you managed to showcase all the qualities they were looking for within 45 mins!

Mine was alright too. The alumnus was kind enough to invite me to the local alumni dinner she was hosting the next day. Got a chance to meet some great people.

To be honest, I think towards the last rounds it becomes largely a play of nationality and industry-background. I mean, to ensure diversity, they have to look back at their selected candidate pool from R1 and R2 and accordingly balance it out with the R3 pool.

The wait is surely painful..

@Kohsamed - I had a similar interview experience. Though I didn't have a 2 hours slot booked upfront, but after reading other interview debriefs I was hoping it would go on for at least 1.5-2 hours. My first impression is that it went pretty well tough it lasted for only around an hour. I did come across such successful/unsuccessful experiences from the previous threads. I have analysed (over analysed) what it could mean, but the fact is that we'll only know next week.

Though not very common, its not rare to have a 1 hour interview either.
