The interview invitation is scheduled to be sent in 13 Nov. I wonder why I haven't got any notification yet?
If we haven't got the invitations till now, does it mean we don't get accepted?

Hi everyone,

I had applied for the early application deadline and I got into MBS for 2018 intake. I would like to share my interview experience.I fount that the interview was a pretty friendly and ,more of an informal conversation. I found that I was over prepared. :D
The interviewer was very nice and friendly. He asked the common questions like Why MBA, why MBS and mostly the questions based on your CV and admission essay. So make sure to prepare for those questions and also keep a copy of your admission essays and CV close at hand. Don't worry too much. You guys will nail it! ;)
All the best! :)
