Thanks nyabo! I wonder if all Canadian interview invites already went out. Would you mind sharing what the interview schedule was as well?

Thanks again!

Good luck all!

Wow - lucky R4! Great job, everyone!

I was also torn between an in-person interview and a Skype interview, but have decided to interview in-person (in NYC). I still will have to travel, but I think actually meeting someone is worth it.

Do share what y'all decide to do :-D

What kind of background check process does Oxford do for admitted students? I have already verified my grades, test scores. Will I have to verify salary?

Hi All,

I am an Indian national planning to apply for Round 5. I have a GMAT score of 720. 3 years of work ex in an IT consultancy Firm. Undergrad (Engineering) CGPA - 9.7/10. Have earned merit based scholarships each year of the engineering course and have decent participation in extra curricular activities.

Should I apply to SAID?

Thanks,
Ankit

Hi everyone!
I had an interview this week with Jonathan Reynolds and I was wondering whether anyone had the same interviewer and can share her/his experience with me? I was asked very unexpected questions, none of the usual why MBA, why Oxford, why now. Waiting for the results now...

Hi Angela,

Can you please share the focus area of the questions for the Oxford interview.

Any tips?

Thanks.
