Fingers crossed. I hope everything goes well.

Perfect..See ya then!!

Anyone interviewing in Chapel Hill next week? I'll be there on Monday.

Hi there,

I am scheduled for Skype Interview on 14th...but it would be perfect if i can do personal interview (in Delhi) ...How did you manage to get it ?


Thanks in advance.

We received a mail from the school giving this option. Try contacting them. They might give you a slot in case it is still available!!

I scheduled my interview as soon as i submitted my application. So, these personal interview happens only on weekends ??

If you don't mind...can u please tell me the venue in Delhi where they are hosting these interviews.

Thanks

All the best for the interviews guys.
Waiting for your debriefs. Do post it.
For the people who are done with the interviews, can you please post a debrief. It will be helpful for the other candidates.

All the best to those who have their interview in the coming days!!! I completed my interview on 19th Dec via Skype. She began by describing the admission process. She had not read application. She only had my resume.
This interview experience was very different for me. She started from the very beginning:

1. Where did you grow up? How has it helped you in your life?
2. Why did you choose NIT, Surat for doing engineering?
3. What extra-curriculars were you involved in during college?
4. Why did you choose to join the company that you are currently working in?
5. What do you enjoy the most about your job?
6. Does your work involve working in a team? Describe the team structure.
7. The clients that you work with, where are they located and are you involved in working with their team?
8. What challenges did you face while working with an overseas client?
9. Tell me about two achievements in your job that you are proud of?
10. Why do you want to do an MBA and what your post-MBA goals?
11. Why Kenan-Flagler?
12. Any questions for me?

The interview lasted about 35-40 minutes.

Hello Folks!!

I am a bit confused about essay 3. My GMAT score is 660 (Q47 V34), which falls in the mid 80% range of score. Should I use the optional essay to explain this score?

What I am going to advise you will be my personal thoughts and nothing else. I have done my research in past 6 months, but I am not a professional.

As I see it, you fall 40 points below the median score of 700. (Source - https://www.kenan-flagler.unc.edu/admiss ... ofile.aspx ) So it will not be entirely unreasonable if you explain yourself in the essay. In fact, it will only project your effort, and determination in joining UNC, to an adcom. If I were in your place, I would have definitely written that essay.

That said, it is for you to decide, for you are the best judge of yourself. You need to decide whether your GMAT score seems in sync with your past work performance and GPA or not? Did you give your 100% in the GMAT, or not? If not, what circumstances stopped you from doing so? Do you plan to retake the GMAT? If yes why, if no why not? Do you have other positive areas in the form of Resume and WE that can make up for your test score?

These are not the questions that I ask you, I am just trying to give you ideas for your 3rd essay . Personally, I think its a decent score, but for UNC, it may be slightly less if your other records and essays are not exemplary.

You made me visit the page and give kudos to the post. Excellently written.

Hello everyone.

I am a passout of University of Delhi. My marksheets are in English and my degree is in both Hindi & English. Nowhere has it been mentioned on any of them that the medium of education was English. I am applying to KFBS in R3 and have not taken TOEFL.

As per the website, TOEFL is waived for students graduating from India. But I am unsure of whether a proof of education in English will be required or not.
Can someone please tell me what can be submitted as a proof of 'the medium of education is English' if asked for it?

Thanks
