I think the applications are going out according to the location in order for the candidates to be able to attend the in-person interviews. As you can see from the schedule I posted earlier today Lagos was first followed by US.

Good luck to everyone!

Congratulations to you too! :) I've gone for the morning of the 13th, but I've also told them that I'm pretty flexible for any of the Oxford dates as I'm based in the UK!

Q: Is round 4 too late to apply to Oxford?

I am below the 3.5 GPA requirement too - so kinda worried about that angle. Although I do have a good GMAT.

Not at all. Provided you submit before the deadline, you should be fine.

Ladies and gents,

How are you preparing for your interviews? I am watching videos on SBS in their Youtube page, reading their MBA brochure and of course my application and practising sample questions, along with checking out past interview reports. However, it sounds like SBS does not have a standard interview format and that it kind of depends on who is interviewing. Any tips on how to best prepare?

Thanks and good luck to you all!
