Hi All,
I have applied for IBEAR MBA in Round 4 and received admit yesterday but they gave only a week to pay the deposit and so I'm weighing options if it's worth the price tag. Does anyone know how are the outcomes this year given the job market is pretty tight overall?

I assume your interviewer will be someone from the admission office. The questions are pretty standard. It will not be a blind interview so they have access to your application (resume and essays). Thus, most questions will be based on the application. 1. Tell me about yourself 2. Why MBA 3. Why IBEAR? 4. How would you add value to the program 5. Long-term and Short-term goal

Make sure you have given deep thought to everything you have written in your application. For instance, if you have stated a hobby, you should be ready to talk at length about the same - your influences, your journey etc.

What do you mean by timeline? If you are asking for duration of the interview, it is mostly 30-35 mins.

Sorry for the ambiguity. I meant..by when can we expect the adcom to intimate us whether we are shortlisted for the interview for R2 admissions?

I don’t have the exact details. However, based on R1 timelines, it takes about a month after the deadline.
