I interviewed with an Admissions Committee member in Evanston. Mostly standard questions straight out of Essay 1 and Essay 2. The more interesting questions revolved around the distinction between leadership and management. At the end of the interview we talked about my dog, as a response to what do you do in your spare time. Overall, it was a relaxed predictable interview. On the last day of the Kellogg results I got a call from Adcom telling me that I was in !! 🙂
