Welcome to this week’s edition of Wiki Wednesdays, in which we take a peek at the latest goings on in the Clear Admit Wiki!  We’re taking a closer look at some of the numerous reports that have rolled in for Harvard Business School and Stanford GSB.

But first, we’d like to remind applicants that, today through next Tuesday, March 24th, every fifth piece of content submitted for the Clear Admit Wiki will receive a $10 iTunes gift card.  Plus, between now and next Tuesday, March 24th, the first 15 candidates that submit interview reports for Berkeley / Haas, INSEAD, London Business School or NYU / Stern will receive a $10 gift certificate to iTunes! (Please note, to be eligible for a prize, content must be e-mailed to wiki@clearadmit.com. Limit: one gift card per person.)

Without further ado, here are a few snippets from the freshest reports in the Clear Admit Wiki.  Starting with Stanford, one candidate shared the following queries from an alumni:

  1. Where else have you applied? How have those worked out?
  2. Tell me about what inspires you.
  3. How do you deal with failure?
  4. What are your hobbies?

Another Stanford candidate answered the following questions from an alumni during  a Round 2 interview:

  1. What did you take away from your undergraduate experience?
  2. Tell me about a time you failed.
  3. What is your greatest accomplishment?

For Harvard Business School, an adcom member posed the following questions to a Round 1 applicant:

  1. As you know there are many people applying from a finance background, why should we consider you vs. other candidates?
  2. In essay 1, you mention you lead a team of people while working in India, please describe how you were able to execute this and what aspects you found difficult.
  3. Why have you chosen to you leave your job at this time?
  4. Who would you want to sit next to in your first year at HBS?

Thanks for checking out Wiki Wednesdays this week!  Be sure to come back next Wednesday for another glimpse of the latest contributions to the Clear Admit Wiki.  As always, we’d like to thank everyone who has shared their experiences with the MBA admissions process and truly strengthened this robust resource for fellow applicants!  So, don’t forget to keep sending in your interview reports – or campus visits, school comparisons and application challenges – to  wiki@clearadmit.com and we’ll be sure to post them to the Wiki.  Thanks again and best of luck to those undergoing interviews!
