Hi Guys
Congrads to all who are joining Fall 2018!
Just got admitted to the Fall 2018 MBA at Schulich Canada - keele !
In my admissions letter, it says "Work Placement Required : NO "
Anyone know why is this? What does it mean?
Also, what is the major difference between the MBA and International MBA ?
Show more

Congrats on your admit.

It just means that the "Internship" is not a mandatory requirement for the degree.

This is one of the key differences in the MBA and IMBA - IMBA has a required work term / internship. Also the cohort is very small, as compared to the MBA.

Hi

Sharing my interview experience with Mr. Imran Kanga

He asked me 4 basic questions which I read that he generally asks most people.

1) Tell me about your current job. Since I work in the Energy field, he shared a little about how Schulich has become energy conscious and we had a short chat about that.

2) Why do you want to do an MBA

3) Why did you choose Schulich in particular ? I spoke about the school, location, clubs, etc.

4) Do you have any questions? Asked him if I can balance life outside the program by pursuing personal interests. He said there are many opportunities to enjoy the city and other activities through the events organised by the Graduate Business Council, etc.

Lastly, he said "I thought a person like you would choose the International MBA and not the Full time General MBA. I got a little stumped because I never considered the International MBA at all (did not read about it either). So I fumbled and asked "You mean the MBA offered in Hyderabad?". His reply: "Ugh No. I mean the International MBA where you have a work term b/w 1st and 2nd Yr and you can choose to go abroad". Taking a clue, I managed an answer : "Well, I want to experience Canada and fully immerse myself in the city and the opportunities it has to offer and am not keen on doing any internships abroad" (Frankly, that happens to be the truth!)

We then signed off. Guess it all worked out well (was offered admission within a week of the interview)
Note: I couldn't decipher anything from his expressions because he seemed pretty laid back throughout the interview.

I did. He asked about my research methodology of shortlisting the bschools I wanted to apply to.
If he gave me 50,000$ to invest what would you do with it?
What is one feature of leadership that is not desirable.

These are the questions that I found unique. Other than that it was basic why do you want to come to Schulich and what was the response of students you spoke to (I mentioned that I spoke to a few current students in one of my answers). Oh he might ask you about something you've mentioned in your resume or essay coz he asked me about violin. (I used to play in school)

I'd suggest just be confident and know your resume and essay.

Hope it helps.

Nope. The meeting was done on Wednesday and admission said we should hear back by Friday; but I still have not received anything yet. I hope they do send notification to people who did not get awards.
