[quote="ayan5409"]Is there any fb group for Simon admitted students? The admit mail mentioned of one but I was not able to find any!

Got it! You need to send a friend request to Admit Simon in order to get added to the exclusive FB group.

Sure!

It was a really easy going and conversational interview. I was asked to spoke about my experience and college education, my post mba goals and the skills I'd like to improve with an MBA.

We also spoke about achievements and lessons learned through my career.

I took my GMAT exam on 10/26/16. Got 700 but my GPA is 2.0. I am not sure about my chances. I selected the school in my GMAT school selection. Do I need to do anything else or just wait for their response?

Think you should notify them by an email, saying the score report is coming. They'll get it nevertheless but IMO informing is better :)

Good luck
