did you guys reformat your resumes based on the sample they provide in the application? feels a bit silly to have profile section as obviously the goal of everyone is to get an mba. also a bit silly to waste valuable space for my address - it is in the application elsewhere
You can definitely get rid of the profile section, but I guess one line for your address won't do any harm. I mean it's standard resume stuff, so I'd keep it.

Had my interview a few hours back at the local Starbucks and it was a nice experience.
It was pretty casual and went on for about 50-60 minutes. The interviewer shared with me her experiences at Fuqua - life in Durham, the basketball Campout, the Consulting Practicum and advantages of having a Wednesday off.
The questions I was asked were:
1. Tell me about yourself/walk me through your resume
2. What is your current role at work?
3. Why MBA?
4. Why Fuqua?
5. What do you think makes teams successful?
6. Best team you've worked in and why?
7. Best manager you've worked with and why?
8. Conflict resolution 1
9. Conflict resolution 2
10. What are the community activities you've played a part in? When did you start engaging in these?
11. Tell me about a situation when you had to deal with a team member who was not pulling their weight.
12. Other schools you've applied to?
13. What's your long term career goal?
14. What was your last appraisal like? What were the good and the bad things that were highlighted?
15. Tell me about the most constructive feedback you've got so far and what you did to improve.
16. What are you passionate about?
17. Tell me about a time when you failed.
18. Is there anything that you would like to add to your application at this point?
Wow, after typing out that list, it seems like a lot of questions for an hour. Maybe I spoke too fast?
The 29th can't come any sooner. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Hope this helps people for the later rounds (today was the last day for Early Action interviews)!

I felt the exact same way after my interview! Either my answers were too short or I was talking too fast, both scary thoughts. 12 more days to go, eep.
