You made sure you picked the right program at Kellogg (i.e. 2 Year MBA) since I remember they had a few options on GMAC site given Kellogg has multiple offerings?

When can an applicant expect interview notification after the submission of the application? Also, do international applicants have to schedule their interviews as well?

Hi, I checked the threads for last year and as per those threads interview invites to internationals should start rolling by 25th Jan or so. All the best! P.S. Have you completed the video essay questions?

Thanks! Yes, submitted it last night.

feel slightly out of zone for the Kellogg MBA video essay. Can the veterans share what kind of questions are asked in the Video essay?

My video essays were a breeze. I got 3 questions, which were pretty basic. If you have gone through the entire application process, you are already prepared for this. Second question is same for all i.e. your goals and why kellogg? While the first and the third questions were typical interview questions e.g. how did you tackle a signifiant roadblock in professional career and what was the outcome? I would not worry about the video essays as it is the last thing on your application that is reviewed. They would have already made up their mind whether to invite your for the interview by that time. Unless you go horribly wrong, video essays won't make or break your application.

Apart from the standard question on why mba Why Kellogg, the two other questions were: 1) tell us about a time when you were made to work with a team that you did not want to? How did you handle the situation? 2) which is your favourite holiday and why? Sent from my iPhone using GMAT Club Forum

Yes, I remember seeing a few options as well. I just confirmed I did select the 2 Year MBA option. I'm not too worried about it since the App Status page states, "Please note, unofficial test scores will be accepted during the review stage, however, all applicants should ensure that official test scores are sent to Kellogg for verification purposes." I am mostly just curious to see if others were experiencing the same.
