Hi Khulan

How can I know whether the panelist is from a similar field, do I have to go check on linkedin for each option of panelist?

I interviewed with an AdCom member about an hour back. Had a really great experience. Walk me through your resume. Why MBA. Why McDonough. Goals. Tell me about a time you stepped back for the betterment of a situation.(caught me a bit off guard) Tell me about a time you had to persuade someone to look at things your way. Top 3 strengths. Any questions for me. She was pretty impressed and remarked that my chances are good!

Hope this helps hanowaswiss,

I just got an email from McDonough with subject ’application update’ that my application is successfully submitted and that I may be contacted for interview after a ’preliminary review’. I submitted the application on Sept ~27 and got this email today. Is this normal?
