just got done with my UCLA interview. here is a debrief if it helps anyone:

after 5 interviews, i must say - this was the most weird interview. My interviewer was in a hurry to wrap it up. lasted 30 mins to the dot. questions: walk me through your resume, why MBA and why now? your goals - how do you think you have transferable skills to achieve them? plan B? why anderson and how is it a good fit? learning teams are imp, a time when you took on a challenging role in a team? ques for interviewer.
I was asked very similar questions.

Similar experience. Felt quite rushed as they seem to have a 30 min hard stop, but i made sure to convey everything i wanted to even though she told me to keepnit brief :p

Although I too was asked similar questions, it wasn't hard stop for me. It lasted about 40 minutes and it ended without time coming into the conversation.

done with my interview - but lasted only 10mins + 5mins for the questions that I had for him. Should I be concerned? I feel like I did fairly well to answer whatever he asked

10 mins is too less-May be you are too efficient

if you feel they covered all the important questions then nothing to worry

I was descriptive in all my answers - but he didn't ask anything beyond. Walkthrough, Why MBA, Why UCLA and Alternate goals.

There is still more than a month to go for the final decisions. I would still be hopeful for an interview invite.
