There is really nothing to be worried about. Interview is pretty standard one.. Why MBA, Why Olin, Strength, Weaknesses, Leadership experience etc.... Specially be sure to be asked one of the first two mentioned above.
Also, if you open last year's thread you will get same set of questions...
Another thing, do not worry at all. From what I have experienced and learnt from others, interviewer is usually very friendly and will make you comfortable. So it would really be in your hands to screw it up :D

Hi,

I submitted my application on 30th. The status still says "Submitted", and I have not heard back from the school. Generally, schools send a confirmation email after verifying all the documents etc. Did you guys receive any confirmation email?

Thanks

Hi underdog118,

I got a short email confirming receipt of application. I am also waiting and worried to know what happens next. Maybe Vips0000 can throw some light on this. Good luck with the results!

Hi themagus,

Even I received that mail. But, that mail was just an automated reply. What does your application status say?

Hey Guys..

Its seems that some of you have already been interviewed, and sadly some have been denied admission. :?
Can you please give some tips on how to tackle the interview questions and what mistakes not to make during interview(Which you might have committed )

I'm still little puzzled on how to ans the question " Why Olin". Can anyone provide a suitable answer that is Olin specific.

Thanks
