I'm a fellow applicant to NUS MBA Round 2. Haven't heard from them yet. Do you mind sharing when you received the interview invite from NUS and what the experience was like?
@SnigdhaSingh I received the invite on 7th January.
The interview was conducted by an adcom member and an alumni. Following were the questions: 1. Tell us about yourself 2. Tell us about how your day to day looks like at your current job 3. You have managed XX no. of people, what are some of the challenges you have faced 4. How can NUS help you in your goals? 5. Tell us about the automations you have mentioned in your application? What's your view on AI? 6. Have you interacted with folks from different geographies and cultures professionally? 7. What sets you apart from others? 8. An instance where you were curious about something?
This went on for some 25 mins and then 5-10 mins were for my questions. They mentioned that they'll get back to me after 2-3 weeks.
@pshah29 I got an email yes. Stating this: "If you are not invited to interview, the Admissions team will do an additional review of your application before the decision notification deadline. On March 15, you will receive either a waitlist or deny decision. If waitlisted, your application will continue to be reviewed throughout the cycle. " So actually I am not even waitlisted - looks like pre-waitlist
Can you please describe your process and interview for Judge and Said? It will be very helpful. And also if you could talk about the acceptance/rejection criteria.
@CentaClaws I only interviewed at Said. She started by asking what did I learn from all the alumni I spoke to. A bit from my essays. My motivation for Said and my goals post MBA. Since I wanted to get into PE consulting, she asked me my thoughts about PE right now. She asked how I will manage the stress of an MBA. What do I value in a leader. She asked an interested question - there are two types of people in the world, who are they and which one are you.
My interview at Said was very average, I was a bit nervous. I think that was key to my rejection. At Cambridge I feel that I got rejected without interview since I applied in R3.
