Received an interview invite on Feb 14th (I was elated)
- I had an interview on February 18th. The interview was okay, it was with the admission committee - it was conversational and a tad-bit informational. It lasted about 25 minutes, more or less. If I remember correctly, I think after the 15th minute, they wrapped up asking you questions, and open the floor for me to ask them questions.
A bit about my background, if it helps: international student, gmat waiver, did my undergrad in the US & 3-4 years of WOE in R&D and business consulting.
And the wait begins.... Goodluck everyone
