Lol, thought you applied all schools in R1 and already made the final decision :D. Can't believe you have been wait-listed in UNC . Will have the interview with them tmr.

Ohh yeah, I applied to 10 schools in R1 only and 0 in R2. I am waiting for these waitlists to be cleared as well deciding on the options I currently hold. All the best for your interview.

Ohh Come'on ...Why don't you tell them or I will !!!!

Ohh no you cannot do that if I join somewhere u don't have an admit Remember: I have not taken the decision either Okay ..we should stop now before people start getting irritated!!

Is Kelley still sending out interview invites for international applicants as part of Round 2? Also as a generic question, in comparison to R1 and R2, what are chances for a R3 international applicant ?

Some notes on my interview. This was a blind interview, the adcom only had my resume. It was very conversational. The adcom spend a considerable time talking up Kelley. Questions I was asked 1. Why do you want an MBA? Why now? 2. Why have you chosen this career path? 3. Why Kelley? 4. What is something positive your colleagues or manager would say about you? 5. What is something they would say you need to work on? 6. What is something you would change about your professional journey? 7. Do you have any concerns about getting an MBA? 8. Anything else you would like me to know? 9. Questions for the adcom

I'll share my interview experience too. Very conversational with a 2nd-year student. The interview lasted about 20 minutes and we spent about 10 minutes on my questions/chatting. I hope it helps future applicants! 1. Walk me through your resume 2. Why MBA 3. Why Kelley 4. Goals 5. What's your leadership style? 6. How do you contribute to the team? 7. What do you do in your free time? 8. Failure 9. Any questions to the student? I'm sure there were 2-3 more questions but I do not remember what they were. There was no curveball or off-guard questions. Good luck!
