Hi Guys,

I had my interview today at Ahmedabad. It was taken by Ms. Jan Snow. She was very nice and friendly.
Questions Asked:
1. Difference between USA and India's study (I have done two international internships so it was kind of related to that)
2. Short term and long term goals
3. Why MBA
4. Why now
5. Leadership and Teamwork experience
6. What strengths your colleagues will highlight about you?
7. What strengths your supervisor will highlight about you?
8. Why OLIN?
9. What do I do in free time?
10. What other colleges have you applied to and if you get a call from everywhere, how will you decide?
11. Questions for me?

Overall it was a very nice experience.

No, not yet. I do not expect before mid-dec, judging by the invites sent to R1 applicants.

Congrats Abrar! Seeing that interview invites for R1 applicants are rolled until now, I believe the wait would be long for R2 applicants.

Any R2 applicant received an interview invite?

Congrats rgoyal82!!

I also got Admitted. But my email didn't have any information regarding the scholarship. I see others also mentioning that there is no info of scholarship yet.

Can you mention how did you get your scholarship info?

Congrats once again!!

@abcgroove

Actually, in reply to my confirmation email, I asked the adcom member that when would I get the scholarship info so he told me that I have got a scholarship but the amount details will come with the admission packet.

Done with the interview.. I think it went well (fingers crossed)

Just concerned about the results? The website says 15 Dec, thats just 1 week from now! Would they evaluate my application within this time?
Was there a particular reason for being interviewed so late?
