Interview was very professional. Met in his office. He had only positive things to say about his Wharton experience. This was a very conversational interview. It was clearly a blind interview working loosely off of my resume. It did not seem that he was working off of any scripted questions. In fact I was suprised that there were no tricky questions (especially since he was a McKinsey? guy). Interesting note … he seemed frustrated a little with Wharton in that he commented that through the years he has seen virtually no correllation between his notes to Wharton regarding the candidate and the subsequent acceptance or rejection of that candidate. I think that speaks to the fact that they interview such a relatively high percentage of applicants.

Note:
Wild journey since getting Waitlisted post-interview Round 1. Gave several updates, and got the phone call on 5/22. Had to decline it because they gave no $ and I'm holding a very good scholarship at Johnson. Best of luck to those still waiting, but if you get off the list be ready to pay sticker price.
