Had my first interview today. I think it went fairly well. The only "standard" question was "why is now the right time". Other than that they were fairly specific questions based on my application. Fairly laid back interview but by no means casual. Overall a good experience and made me want to attend HKUST even more.

I was a bit confused about that myself. I booked the "potential" interview for a date before the other one. But my feeling is that they then switched the topics so that they would be in the planned order. It felt like a background/motivation interview.

Hi Guys,

I am not sure if this is the right thread to answer this question. But I will still go ahead and post the question.

I want to know how good is Msc Information Systems Management from HKUST

I just took my GMAT and did not score very well.
OA Score - 640
Quant - 47
Verbal - 29

Overall Experience - 4 years in information technology
Degree - MCA

Can I apply for the ISM HKUST course, or should I consider taking GMAT again.

Congratulations! Yes, they asked me to send hard copies of certain documents as well as verified my references. As long as your documents are accurate and reflect what you stated in your application, it should not be an issue. Welcome to the class!

Thanks blueram. What confuses me is that all of the things they are asking for are marked as "received" on the application website. I've sent off an e-mail asking about this.

Hi Everyone,

Not much activity here. I applied in the phase -2 of application deadline bang on the deadline day, and no I/V notification yet. Makes me nervous.:(
