Can anyone share their interview experience? Sorry to ask again but gotta webcam meetup coming up..... donno what to expect. Any oddball questions? anything to watch out for?? any tips/pointers???


Is yours gonna be a blind interview? When I had my interview, the typical questions (self-introduction, why MBA, why KFBS, example of teamwork, leadership experience) were asked. It's unlikely that they will ask you very probing questions bc the school only wants to assess several general areas. Essentially, I think the adcom would like to know how successful you will be at future job interviews. If you can sell yourself well, I think you will stand a great chance. Your GMAT score is definitely gonna work in your favor. All the best, devansh_god :-D


Cheers m8!! thnx for the motivation.... :-D

Guys,

I had applied in R2 and got waitlisted after an interview. I have already expressed my interest to continue my consideration using the link sent to me in the decision email.

I plan to send a document and email highlighting how I'm fit and would contribute to the school. Any other suggestions on the waitlist strategy? How many of the waitlisted students last year were converted into admits?

When they say that waitlisted candidates will be evaluated again in the subsequent round, is the application read by a different person who hasn't seen before or just keep comparing the notes with those from other candidates files?

Thanks guys.

Your waitlist strategy is a good one. I would also evaluate your application critically and see where your biggest weak points are. If those areas have had any improvement, I would talk about that. If there have not been any improvements but you believe you can improve upon them within the next few months, I would work on those areas and then send an update.

I am a R3 applicant and I was interviewed on Feb 14th. Is it too early to expect a decision from adcom?

I would guess that it is probably a little early. The notification date for R3 is officially March 19. The majority of the acceptances for R2 came out on the notification date, with a few people getting calls earlier in the week.

Got to know from another forum that some R3 people have started getting admit decisions....I think, like the earlier round, people with a scholarship are getting intimated before others!!


Which forum did you check? Can you please post the link here

Mine was last updated on 3/9/2012 at 10:45 am. I'm wondering if I should take that as a bad sign...

Good luck everyone!

I don't think you can read too much into timing of update. Until we hear something official, we can only speculate.

Good luck folks!

I have a last updated date of 3/14/2012 11:47:08 AM. Honestly I don't think it means anything at this point. If you haven't heard anything definite then I wouldn't speculate on anything.
