Wow.. don't know how they didn't. Your stats are amazing man

Oh, you seem to have a well-rounded profile. I'm sure you will get through even better colleges. Good luck! I received an admit from Scheller in R1 and based on the incoming students group that I'm added in, they have already selected ~45 students, which is more than 50% of the class size. So maybe that's the reason for the rejection... spots are a lot less.

Hi @vedikapk, would you mind sharing your interview experience? Has anyone been invited to an interview on February 21-26th?

Sure, so I was interviewed by a MBA recruiting manager and a current student. The conversation went on for an hour and below are the questions they coverered (as much as I can recall now): 1. Why MBA? Why Scheller? 2. What is your management style? 3. How do you plan to contribute to your class? 4. What have you done to bring in inclusivity? 5. A presentation you gave in the past and what was the feedback? 6. What do you look for in a teammate? 7. What do you know about H1B? How do you plan to overcome the roadblocks to secure placement? 8. Questions from me Hope this helps!

Hi, anybody willing to share their R2 interview debrief?

I was interviewed by an adcom member and a second year student. Interview went on for about 40 mins including the three questions I asked. It was conversational although they were peppering me with questions. 1. Started with an intro. They asked to not mention my work experience details as they had already gone through my resume and essays 2. Why Scheller? Why now? 3. You will be added to a team right away. How would you contribute to the group assignments and projects? 4. Talk about a time when you gave a presentation. Provide some context and how it went. 5. Getting visa sponsorship is tough. What would you do to position yourself to secure a sponsorship from your company. 6. How would your colleagues/peers describe you? 7. What do you look for in a teammate? 8. How would you contribute to the class and to the community? 9. Any question you wish you were asked? 10. I was given time to ask questions which they responded to very warmly.
