I felt like my Ross interview went pretty well because it felt like a conversation, though my interviewer did follow the typical MBA interview format (i.e. professional history, short/long-term goals, why MBA, why Ross/now, etc.). The only differences I found was that I was asked to sell my university to a college applicant and share anything else I’d like the adcom to know about me. Other than that, it was pretty straightforward.

Note:
I’ve stayed on the waitlist since March and provided 2 half-assed personal updates about continued interest and a promotion. I didn’t chase alum or student recs as I was accepted to another top choice school which I think would’ve helped turn the decision around in May. Best of luck to everyone else!
