my questions were something like this, cant remember the exact verbiage- 1) how do you set priorities in life (professional, responsibilities, activities) 2) What trait in you do you consider the best, 3) what was the biggest change that you had to accommodate in your life and how did you implement that

and yes the first question is to show ID and pronounce your name.. i had my ID far away, i ran to get that.. luckily the recording had not started

so please keep your passport near you before you start your Kira!! i did a rookie mistake

AbMo
i also heard on the essays if you say "thats why im a good mba candidate" its another red flag. so at the end of the day, just be yourself. thats the best advice I can give anyone reading here. This is coming from a Rice admit :)
sounds good.. thank AbMo :)

Question- Do indians below a 700 gmat actually end up landing an admit at Jones ? Or is it highly improbable. I’m in the below 700 category hehe

I do have a management consulting background, just to provide some context

I have heard that a stunning profile from an over represented group could be invited for an interview. However for an admit, candidates have to demonstrate academic vigor which is evidently displayed through the gmat .. hence for Asians it is good to have the scores above school averages..

Gpa can also demonstrate academic readiness .. since the pool is over represented it is better to be above the school average —> thoughts by a current student

So if no kira invite after a week on r2 should I assume a ding? Posted from my mobile device
hey i applied on 07.01.2024 and received a KIRA invite yesterday. So may be there is a chance. I will suggest you to mail them to know the status of your application.

I finished my Kira on Jan. 14th, but I haven’t got the interview yet. Is there still any hope? Does anybody have the same situation? Feel so anxious now.

Hei! Hang on there! don't be panic! I also completed on 15th of Jan and haven't heard anything yet, I checked round 1's posts on Clear Admit, it's quite normal to receive the CA invite late. But I also set up a back up plan, if I felt things still not moving until mid of Feb, I will start to apply to Round 3 for other schools. But anyway, let's just keep hoping! :)

True! very small chance to admit in Round 3 for us, btw, how many schools did you apply in R2?

All the best guys

Had my interview with a second year student

She said she got her interview really late in the process and had already paid deposit for another school.

It's probably on a rolling basis
