Here is latest on the status updates by users on the forum. Only 3 admitted applicants on the chart; clearly many applicants haven't updated their status yet.

Mostly standard questions and very relaxed interview.

Why MBA
Why Tippie
ST/LT Goals, How do they tie in, Backup Career Plan
If you were the CEO of your organisation, what are 2 strategic changes you would make
What can NOT be known about you from the resume
What is that one negative thing your boss/supervisor would say about you
And others on similar line based on your answers

Thanks a lot for your response. That really helped. So what the MBA schools ask on their essays, they ask in the interview. And any idea on what basis the financial help is given?

Any ideas about the personal essay?

Should we write simple text, PPTs , what to present in PPT, how to present, videos?
This is strange. I would have preferred the normal written essays :(

Can anybody help?

Thank you

Tippie is generous with scholarships but here too standard rule applies. Early application have better chances of scholarship so I would advice you to apply ASAP.

Hey prolic,

Thanks for extending you help on this forum.

I have my one and done interview coming up on 28th October and wanted to know about the scholarship chances. Further, can you tell me about some of the general questions for the interview and how actually I can make the most of it.

I have a GMAT of 710, CGPA of 8.28/10 from one of the top tier engineering institutes of India( NIT) and work ex of 5 years in cost estimation and vendor management pertaining to thermal power sector.

Regards,
Aditya

Just wondering why is everyone focused on one and done, and not applying through the normal process. The October 28 event was fully booked so I applied through the normal route. Had my interview this Friday, and the admission decision is expected this week. Hoping to get in with GA. Any advantages/disadvantages applying through the normal route Vis-a-Vis one and done?
