Foster Interview Questions (Compilation)

Hi, Is anyone applying in Third round? Are they known to give scholarships in third round? Thanks, Navinder

Yes. deadline for R2 is Nov 15th PST. All applications will be reviewed after the deadline. Punters11 :- Do we need to submit/mail any other thing after the applicationsubmission ( except for sending the official GMAT score from mba.com ) ?? And what GPA converter did you use to convert indian GPA

I did not convert my GPA. I left my GPA as blank because I do not have a GPA. My undergraduate university was based on % system. On another note, just submitted my application to Foster for Round 2. How many Round 2 applicants here from India?

Guys, Lets make a whatsapp group for all Foster candidates. It will help a lot to track/ask for help. My number is +91-9028055169. Lets connect I am a R2 applicant.

My university gives GPA on a 10 scale. I have read somewhere that US b schools are well aware of Indian Grading System and will appropriately weigh for college ranks to accommodate for stricter grades in higher ranked colleges,hence I left the GPA field blank too . My transcripts mention the first class with distinction as 70% + , so lets hope the adcoms do rank me appropriately GPA wise .

My university gives a CGPA out of 10, so I just found the CGPA of the last 3 (or was it 4?) semesters that Foster asked for and divided it by 2.5. I know it's incredibly crude but there is no set GPA calculator that I could find. Most are inaccurate because we don't have a grading scale of 9 or 10 grades like the US. The uploaded transcripts should have been enough considering they invited me for an interview.

Hi all, A quick introduction: Vijay here from India, Has been into IT for last 3.5 years.I submitted my application on November 14th. If you guys already formed a whatsapp group, kindly add me there. +91-9916255899. Anyone who submitted their R2 applications got a video or admission interview call? Also, guys who submitted for R1, what is the time from submission of application to receiving an interview invitation? Thanks Vijay Suman Nunna.

I think it is 2 weeks from application submission to interview call. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using GMAT Club Forum mobile app

For all the applicants for Foster who are yet to have an interview, I found this file in an earlier thread for Foster applicants. Should be very helpful. Certainly helped me!

Thank you for sharing. On another note, we have started a What's App group for all applicants applying to US B Schools for Fall 2017. If you are interested in joining this group, please PM me your number.
