Dear all,
Had an interview (FIRST ONE) yesterday. Do they have second round of interview also ? If yes, what questions are asked the second time around?
I have also seen some one write that he had only one round of interview to get selected ?

Regards.

Thanks man. My response is in bold.

1. I have heard in this forum and maybe else where that there is a second interview with 15 minute presentation round ? Any input ?
I had just one interview with Sachin and Tom. It was a typical MBA interview; no surprises. There was no presentation involved. Did they ask you to make a presentation?
2. Do they allot u the LBS/ CBS leg as you opt for ?
In the application, they ask you to rank your preference for LBS, CBS, and Hong Kong for the last semester. I think the allotment happens based on the number of seats available. Though I see most people allocated to the LBS leg.
3. How many days after interview is the result intimated ?
I was intimated in ten days.

Hi everyone...
I wish to apply for HKU Amba, but I have some issues regarding documents.
I have official mark sheet from college and have applied for transcripts, but the process will take almost a month.
Can you guys please guide me as to when I need transcripts and should I wait for transcripts and apply I next round or apply now only as I have my original mark sheet which I can scan and upload.
Please help
