The interviewer was quite friendly and made me feel comfortable while answering questions.
It was a blind interview, they had only my Resume to refer to.
The questions were pretty much generic, like why i chose Tepper, and how the work I have been doing and my undergraduate degree relates to my mba decision and my post mba goals.
Another thing I felt is that there was a lot of emphasis on how I have performed in team scenarios and how I can carry it forward in Tepper.

Note:
Interview 14-Sep-2024; result 9-Oct-2024.
My takeaway is: don't trust the school. They admit whoever they want and don't value many qualified and hardworking candidates. The process is a sham. Anyway, I don't want to have anything to do with this school again. Expensive and useless.
