For US applicants and locations where they have a lot of alumni, they interview everyone. Some places where they have a hard time finding alumni or enough alumni they grant interview waivers. I think in rare cases they will even set up a phone interview with an adcom. On BW, the official statistics is 89%.

Hi GoBruins,
Thanks for the interview info from last year. Had mine a couple of days ago.
Met an alumni who is currently in a Big 3 consulting firm . A recent Kellogg graduate.
The interview went well i think considering it was nearly 1 1/2 hr long. I believe Kellogg does give the Alumni, some specific questions which have to be asked.( actually a big list)
A list of some of the questions: ( not in any particular order)
1) Tell me about you leadership experiences
2) What do u like about ur current job and what u dont like.
3) How did ur peers react to ur promotion
4) Since ur successful in ur company, why do u need a MBA
5) Why Kellogg? ( i should have rambled on, but my mind got blocked midway. I just was able to get 3-4 imp reasons before i had cramps in my brain.
)
6) Any difficult team situations u faced and how did u resolve them
7) Any example of a situation when u initiated something constructive at the workplace
8) How will u contribute to Kellogg. Any particular clubs you want to join
9) Post MBA goals, any particular industry and whether u want to return back to Singapore
10) Do u like traveling and anything u dont like about it
11) What would ur managers say about you as a person and an employee. ( I should have said more, but didn't feel like bragging
. So if anyone else you gets this chance, do take the opportunity. ).
12) Tell me about ur leadership style. How did it change throughout ur career. Any particular leadership style u want to aspire for? ( really liked this question, since i did have a some experiences to relate to how and why my style varied through my career)
etc
then i asked the alumni some questions about the Kellogg culture and about Consulting career in particular.
I did meet the alumni earlier at the Kellogg Singapore event so it wasn't so awkward and the interview was more relaxed. A lot of emphasis was on leadership at the workplace or outside if any. funny we didn't dwell so long into the Extra curricular, since we spent more time on my leadership roles at the workplace.
Now i just need to give some finishing touches to my essays and upload them.
Best of luck to us all.

Congratulations btr81! Sounds like you had a great interview.
When did you submit Part 1 and by when did the school match you up with the alum?
