Thanks, Tejas.

I was interviewed with Tom Keller, MBA Director of Admissions, and Jimmy Fabrizio, Associate Director of Career Management (Operations). My interview experience was great and lasted almost about half an hour. It was very conversational and the questions were genric and mostly related to my resume/profile/career goals. In all, I felt that they were very nice and humble and were really looking forward to know me.

It is not necessary I guess. If that is a problem then they will ask you to get your recommendations filled. Also, make sure that at least one of your recommender has submitted or write to them stating the reasons for delay. They are very good people.

Hello,

I'm done with my interview on 11th and yet to receive a decision.

Do we need to send official transcripts thru courier to them.
Also do we need to send official GMAT, TOEFL score thru online for getting a decision?

Received an invite to schedule the interview. As I'm going for MBA+MIS program, I'm expecting that they'll be asking some case based questions. It'll be very helpful if someone could share what case based questions are typically asked by the adcom?

Hi Nikhil,

I had the exact same questions already mentioned in the interview debriefs section. None of the questions I received were out of it. Thus, I thought it would be redundant to add.

Anyhow, I am open to connecting with the community. Drop me a DM and I will surely look forward to answering all your queries.

All the best to everyone! :thumbsup:

Hi,
I am trying to submit my application but having the below issues

1) I applied the App Fee waiver code. Still prompted to select a payment option

2) One of my recommenders has not received the notification for referral, eventhough I have clicked on the resend button a number of times. The recommender has added the mail in his whitlist addresses still this issue persists.

Please help me with these 2 issues. I mailed the Katz team but they are not replying
