Hi everyone! I'm new to this forum - I am currently waiting for the final result - whether I get admitted or invited to admissions day or not. I applied in round 1, did anyone hear back on final decisions yet?

I've only had one interview (with AdCom) on Nov 7 but have not heard anything back yet. Is anyone experiencing anything similar?

Thanks!

Hi guys,
Has anyone completed their interview? Can you please share your experience?

Hi Raulkrish

Yes I completed my Skype interview with AdCom a few weeks ago, it was fairly easy/natural and he was extremely nice.
The questions asked were:
- Why MBA?
- Why IESE?
- Tell me about your family
- How would you describe your MBA experience to them?
- What are your hobbies?
(and a few more I have forgotten now!)

I haven't heard back yet though as to the final decision - but hope this helps!

Hey,

Few of us are going to Singapore for AD post interview. Just wait up as Adcom takes a week or 2 to get back. Hope you hear back soon.
