kryzak, you are correct in a general sense, but for some schools like HBS and MIT, it is extremely important to have a good interview(in other words, dont screw up). An interview is a VERY strong indicator of an admit and extensive interview prep (mock interview or not) does make sense for these 2 schools.
bee, inspite of his somewhat boorish demeanor, Sandy does seem to know what he is talking about as far as HBS is concerned. I, personally, would go for his mock interview prep although I have never used his services.

Personally, I really don't think interviews are *that* important in the grand scheme of things. It's one important part of a multi-faceted application process, so at most it's 1/5 to 1/7 of the application (if you factor in GMAT, GPA, essays, rec letters, resume, work experience, etc...). So paying $300 for something you can just ask a friend to do for you isn't really worth it. My 2 cents...
