I just got done with my interview with Alum at his office...it has been one of my most casual and good interview... He did not ask me any very obvious qs such as why MBA ? Why now? etc...it was more of a dialogue than an interview and most of the time he shared his experiences at school and how he applies it at work....his opinion was I am a good fit for the school....ok am done now!! Keepin my fingers crossed!!:-) Good luck to rest of u as well!!

R2 checking in!

Essays done, waiting on my last rec, and gmat score submitted...now waiting for the right time to hit the submit button..


UCLA is my alma mater, and my accounting minor put me right in anderson with mba professors. Must say, anderson keeps it quite competitive.

I agree that it's competitive and it should be, however, Anderson has a 29-30% acceptance rate which is pretty high. Even "the other school" across town has a lower acceptance rate at 22% (of course, that does not necessarily make it better)...just an observation. Good luck to you, I did my interview last week (and did not do a good job). Now I am waiting on the decision!

Yeah, U$C does have a lower admit rate and less # of applicants as well

my experience comes from my accounting minor. One of the greatest disappointments with UCLA undergrad was that they lacked a "finance" or "business" major..so the closest one can get to that was Business Economics major and minor in accounting. Basically the business side of my major was run by the anderson school and they ruled with a heavy hand, especially with curve settings (50% distribution for C-, jeez..) Another disappointment with UCLA was their lackluster alumni network...but this is only the undergrad aspect

So basically half the time I was in Anderson classes with MBA professors (who oddly taught undergrad..) But overall, Anderson has amazing facilities, great professors and network as well.

I had my interview yesterday with alum. I am afraid I told too briefly about myself when he asked to introduce myself. Did I have to say with my prepared answer about "walk me through your resume"? UCLA decision is out of my control now, but I need the direction for another school, just in case.

Judging by last year's activity the answer would be "No" but I surely hope I am wrong.

If we go by the last year, the answer is "No". However, the decisions went out around Christmas time two years ago. I know it is hard to wait esp. for one more month, and that makes all of us. I guess the best way to find out is by tweeting the admissions director!!
