Schulich Video Essay Questions

essprsodose

The video questions were not very complex. You generally will get behavioral questions such as, what would you do if you are faced with a particular XYZ situation in office, how would you chose your group members as a leader etc.

You need not stress about it. My advise to you would be: after listening to the video question, take a deep breath, understand each word of the question, in your mind frame an answer that attends to all the aspects of the video essay question. It is important that you tackle each part of the essay question. For eg: If there is a question, which asks 'How would you chose your team members and why', then ensure that you have answered the 'How' as well as the 'why'. Plan your response so that you get time to answer both, the 'How' and 'why'.

If I recollect rightly, you get 30 seconds after you hear the question to form an answer and speak in front of the camera. While I agree that during such anxious moments 30 seconds are too less, 30 seconds are long enough to gather your thoughts and may be scribble couple of words in your notepad. Be rest assured that the text of the video question will still be flashing on the screen all throughout your video interview.

As regards your last question: No. Your video essay is a part of your MBA application and your application is deemed to be incomplete until you have completed every section of the application, which includes your video essay.

Thank you, sounds assuring! What about timed written component, how long does that one take?

I guess you get a total of 5 minutes for the timed written response.

Thank you so much for response! One more question, when we fill in reference forms, is it necessary to submit the application for referees to receive the email with reference link? or referees will receive the link the moment you add their information without actually submitting the application ?

Great job everyone!

Hi any update on this query? I have the same doubt. Thanks

Recommenders will get the mail when you will save their contact details on that page. This is the case for Schulich.
For some, the mail might go after you submit the application.

Any idea about a timed written essay? What type of questions they are?

A business setting questions such as "Have you ever blamed someone for something and then realized that you were wrong? What did you learn from that experience?"

You have 5 minutes to finish it.

Best of luck.

Sorry, I didn't realize the importance of kudos but I absolutely agree with you that it's better to give kudos.
Thanks for the suggestion.

Hi,
I am looking to take the video interview questions soon the one on the application profile. Heres my question for the timed essay would your webcam be on throughout that session or after your timed recorded essay questions you can switch off your webcam. I get butter fingers when typing under duress. Please tell me about your experience.

Thank you very much.

Your webcam will be off while writing the essay. Best of luck.
