Djokovic17 The questions are quite typical of what they ask from people interested in the finance sector (more focused on collaboration, leadership, and communication). Did the interviewer spend a lot of time discussing your goals/post-MBA plans? I have had mentees who were thoroughly questioned on their post-MBA research and plans, with the interviewer noting down the names of companies and people the candidates had spoken with.
I think Oxford likes to be very thorough with the interview, which is a great sign. You should not overthink the stats if you get any for the interview success. If you felt your answers were genuine and backed with examples/ research, then you have done well.

I had my interview a couple of hours ago. Generic questions like:
1. Why an MBA at this point of your life?
2. Examples when you had a disagreement at work.
3. If your leadership style has changed over time.
4. Mention an occasion when you got feedback and how it went?
5. Is there something you would like to try in the Oxford MBA to get you out of your comfort zone?
6. Why to transition to a financial role (i'm currently a lawyer, working at a central bank)
I'm not sure how it went. I didn't feel it was the best interview but it didn't go bad. Do you know how likely is to be rejected after the interview? Does it influences a lot in the outcome? Do you have data from past applications? Thank you all!
