You can request that but probably they are only conducted at Ann Arbor.

My tauber interview was at 11 and Ross at 11:45

Yup, I applied to Tauber...I just interviewed on-campus. I was thinking of arranging something with the managing director, but the interview was "optional." No need for extra stress :-D .

Anyways, I hope you did well on the interview. My guess is that she is trying to gauge fit with the program which is why she might have been a a bit more hard. I am pretty sure I will be in the Tauber program next year...

Hi,
I had my interview with alum. Although I answered the questions posted well, I could not control my pace. My interview got over in about 20 mins including the questions I asked back. Interviewer went deep and asked sufficiently about my experience but I am surprised with the short duration. I did mention my fast communication as a weakness. Can anyone throw some light on what kind of a feedback I can possibly expect?

Thanks

Feedback in terms of admissions decision? Impossible to say - an interview shouldn't make or break your candidacy.

I did not get it. How does Ross adcom work post interview feedbacks? Do they go back to your application and re-review it with complete picture in place or basis the feedback they make decisions?

Hey Everyone,

I had my alum interview yesterday. It was a very casual conversation and he only asked the standard questions - Why MBA? Why Ross? Why should the adcom choose you over others? An example of global teamwork, a situation where my proposal was opposed and I had to convince everyone.

It lasted for just 25 minutes but the alum owns a manufacturing company and is a pretty busy man so I guess its okay. I believe it went really well. And the long wait begins now! :)

I guess its getting close to the time where I should be very nervous about not getting an interview invite yet.

Any idea when the last of the interview invites are sent out? I know results are on 3/15. I cant imagine invites go out for more than a week or two more. Any one remember when the last of the R1 invites was sent?

I think it was about two weeks into December, which was about a month before R1 decisions were announced. Keep in mind that 1-2 weeks of the time inbetween when interview invites stopped and decisions were released was holiday time.

I just finished my interview with an alumni in Singapore. It was a friendly conversation for nearly 30-45 mins. I was asked the following questions like

1) Why mba?
2) why ross?
3) What are your post mba goals?
4) Explain your leadership style?
5) How would your teammates describe you?
6) Any other schools you applied to?
7) How did you resolve conflicts during your past leadership experiences?

I think we discussed at length each of the above questions.
Later she asked me whether i had any questions for her.
Now have to wait for final decision. Its going to be a long month.
All the best to all of us.
