Wiki Wednesdays: New Interview Reports from Chicago, CBS, Tuck, Duke, LBS, Kellogg, Michigan and Wharton! Posted by Clear Admit on December 10, 2008, at 10:00 am
Posted in: Interview Tips , School: Chicago , School: Columbia , School: Dartmouth / Tuck , School: Duke / Fuqua , School: London Business School , School: Michigan / Ross , School: Northwestern / Kellogg , School: Penn / Wharton , Wiki Wednesdays Welcome to another installment of Wiki Wednesdays, where we share a few new interview tidbits from the Clear Admit Wiki. Just this past week, we’ve received interview reports for no fewer than eight schools, including Chicago Booth, Columbia Business School, Dartmouth / Tuck, Duke / Fuqua, London Business School, Michigan / Ross, Northwestern / Kellogg and Wharton! We’d, therefore, like to start this post with a hearty “thanks!” to all those who have been contributing content to the Wiki and keeping it an informative resource for fellow MBA applicants!
Before highlighting some of the latest posts, we’d like to remind those going through the MBA admissions process that we’ll be awarding a $10 iTunes gift certificate to every fifth applicant who contributes content to the Wiki through December 19th. To be eligible for the prize, simply e-mail your content – whether an interview report, a school visit account or a school choices case – to wiki@clearadmit.com; we’ll post the content to the Wiki and notify the winners by e-mail. Now, without further ado, here are a few snippets from the numerous reports that have rolled in recently!
A trio of applicants to Wharton shared their interview questions from second-year student interviewers, including:
- How do you manage a global team?
- How do you motivate your team members?
- How do you deal with challenges in your team?
- Tell me about a time when you exhibited leadership.
- Provide three examples of how you would become involved with the Wharton community.
An Early Decision applicant to Columbia Business School also faced some questions about team work from an alum:
- [Provide an] example of leading a team.
- [Give me an] example of contributing to a team.
- [Explain an] example of a challenging team/group situation.
- Describe an ethical dilemma you have observed or experienced at work.
Across the pond, a London Business School Round 1 applicant interviewed with an alum:
- [What are your] goals? How will LBS help you get there?
- Have you applied to others schools? Which ones? Why?
The LBS applicant went on to describe the presentation portion of the interview,
- “At some point he gave me a topic for my presentation and he asked that I don’t share the topic with anyone so I won’t, but it was a general topic that did not require any particular knowledge. I had 7 minutes to prepare and 5 minutes to present. It did require some serious thinking and was very concrete.”
These are just a few samples of the latest questions MBA applicants have added, but there are plenty of other reports to peruse in the Clear Admit Wiki! As always, we’d like to thank everyone who has shared their MBA admissions experiences this season! For those in the midst of interviews, don’t forget to check out the Clear Admit Interview Guides for a bit of extra guidance. Best of luck!
