Slide Presentation We have asked for a great deal of information throughout this application and now invite you to tell us about yourself. In four slides or less please answer the following question: What have you not already shared in your application that you would like your future classmates to know about you? We have set forth the following guidelines for you to consider when creating your presentation. * The content is completely up to you. There is no right or wrong approach to this essay. * Feel free to use the software you are most comfortable with. Acceptable formats for upload in the online application system are PowerPoint or PDF. * There is a strict maximum of 4 slides, though you can provide fewer than 4 if you choose. * Slides will be printed and added to your file for review, therefore, flash, hyperlinks, embedded videos, music, etc. will not be viewed by the committee. You are limited to text and static images to convey your points. Color may be used. * Slides will be evaluated on the quality of content and ability to convey your ideas, not on technical expertise or presentation. * You are welcome to attach a document containing notes if you feel a deeper explanation of your slides is necessary. However the hope is the slide is able to stand alone and convey your ideas clearly. You will not be penalized for adding notes but you should not construct a slide with the intention of using the notes section as a consistent means of explanation. Optional Essay If there is any important information that is relevant for your candidacy that you were unable to address elsewhere in the application, please share that information here. 2010 Deadlines Round 1 Deadline: October 14, 2009 Mid-Decision Date: November 11, 2009 Decision date: December 22, 2009 Round 2 Deadline: January 6, 2010 Mid-Decision Date: February 17, 2010 Decision date: March 24, 2010 Round 3 Deadline: March 10, 2010 Mid-Decision Date: April 21, 2010 Decision date: May 12, 2010 Previous Year Threads 2009 - calling-chicago-booth-applicants-for-64813.html 30 ADMITS 14 MATRICULATING 26 DING 14 WL 2008 - calling-chicago-gsb-applicants-48955.html 21 ADMITS 14 MATRICULATING 31 DING 2007 - gsb-r1-and-r2-lets-the-pants-pooping-commence-40002.html 10 ADMITS 11 DING Stats https://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key ... utput=html kwam (2008): Faculty: https://www.chicagobooth.edu/faculty/directory.aspx Courses offered: https://gsbportal.chicagobooth.edu/porta ... rue&mode=2 Curriculum requirement: https://programs.chicagogsb.edu/curriculum/degree.aspx walker: Guide to Slide Presentation

"GAME OVER" : Jigsaw (Saw VI) Started wait for Saw VII next Halloween

Got an interview invite today. Wondering whether I should opt for an on-campus interview or an alumni one. I really want to go to Chicago, visit the campus, talk to students and attend a class, but my work schedule has been very hectic and may not allow for 1-2 days of leave. I can interview on Saturday, but that only serves half the purpose of visiting the campus. Any inputs?

You should go in session if you can, you are gonna be there for 2 years. But if you can't swing it, then might as well do off campus and save the big campus visit for later.

seems they are even sending out invites in midnight? then I will check my mails later...

Hey Everyone, I just found this board and wish I had seen it earlier...lots of good info on here. I too, got my invitation to interview this morning (around 9am Central time). Very excited about it. Do people here have a good general idea of what questions get asked? I conduct interviews for my undergrad alma mater, but I assume that MBA interview questions are a bit different. Obviously any help provided would be greatly appreciated. Best regards, LGM

Check this compiled-interview-questions-74657.html

The ones I specifically got were: 1. Tell me about your journey (i.e. take me through your CV) 2. Tell me a time where you were trying to motivate a team to achieve something, and failed? (remember here to explain how you succeeded at the same thing next time, or even that time after you realised the problem) 3. If you were standing in front of the adcomms, how would you describe yourself in 3 words?

got an interview yesterday, and tried to schedule one. But there are no interviews left in my country (international). So I will have a phone interview with one of the admissions representatives. Have anyone had an interview this way? tips?

would like to know around what time, following the interview feedback, does the admissions committee sit down to dig deeper into each application? would that happen post November 30 or would they start earlier and keep making their decisions even as they release all of them at one go in mid-dec. thanks a lot.
