Better late than never. ryguy and manbilla, Congrats on the interview invite !!
I finished my interview at Ross yesterday. It was scheduled at 10:15 am. My interview was conducted with a second year student. He was very warm and made me feel comfortable instantly. Interview lasted for around half and hour and for the last 5 mins I was asking questions. After we walked out of the room, we were chatting for 5-10 mins about the school.
Some of the questions-
1) Walk me through your resume. ( I answered Why MBA also here and my interviewer was happy that I did that)
2) Why Ross ? ( I forgot to mention some of the clubs I was going to join
at Ross, but I sensed that my interviewer was happy with my answer overall)
3) What was a challenging time you faced in your career and how did you handle it (Now, I had different stories for 'difficult time' and 'leadership'. But since he asked me this before leadership, I thought he is not going to ask me leadership exclusively. So I quickly converted my leadership story in to a challenge and presented that. I think I rambled a bit. Finally, my intuition turned out right. He did now ask me leadership experience later.)
4) What do you do outside work and how will you apply it to Ross ( Kinda screwed it up, I think. I talked about 3 distinct things. But got so carried away that missed linking it to Ross. So after I answer the question, he had to remind me and then I covered it up.)
The above took us around 25 mins. I think I kept a pleasant face and spoke smoothly. In the last 5 mins, I asked a few questions about William Davidson institute.
As he walked me out, we talked about current year recruitment's and overall student culture.
I did a 10 hr drive to Ross and he was amazed that I did that.
Last night, I got the app complete email and initially thought, my app got complete because I interviewed - both happened on the same day. That means, they made a quick decision for me - DING !. And I was
But later, saw the flurry of posts in this thread and was glad to see that everyone got the email. Just a coincidence !
I also met ncprasad on the earlier night. He had a recruiting event in Chicago and landed in Detroit at 10:30 pm. We met in Ann Arbor and 11:15 pm. And were talking till 1:15 am !!! It was great !! Got some honest insights in to life of an MBA and particularly at Ross.

Those were the exact same questions that I got with my alum interviewer, except that he didn't ask me to connect the "outside activities" question to anything about Ross. I also got a question about a time when I led a group of peers with a few follow up questions about that.
Sounds like you did a great job with your interview, rgajare14.

I wish I felt the same consistently since yesterday. Thrice I felt what you said above and at least 10 times, I felt I didn't do well. So I decided to stop thinking
and decided to refocus on my R2 apps BTW, did you notice that the App Complete email said that the decisions will start coming out two weeks before Jan 15 - "Please note that we will reach out to you via email approximately two weeks prior to our January 15th notification date with specifics on how to access your admission decision."
