Interview was mostly warm, with one caveat I will cover later.

  • Tell me about yourself/walk me through resume.
  • Why MBA?
  • Why your chosen post-MBA path?
  • Why Johnson/Ithaca?
  • How will you contribute to Johnson? (or something to that effect)
  • TMATs
  • Hardest question was: What 3 things do you want me to take back?

I got more pushback here than any other school. Every assumption was tested, politely. I got in, with a sizeable scholarship, so don’t feel too insecure like I did.
