NYU interview experience Had my interview last week. Questions are very tailored. The interviewer is very familiar with my application. 我没有遇到典型的Why MBA, why NYU的问题。问题主要围绕我的career goal, 简历,着重问我的oversea experience. 她在整个谈话过程中都非常友好及放松,但看得出来非常有经验,有一点穷追猛打的劲头。比如她问道我在一个多元文化环境里工作的例子,我就提供了一个,结果她说what else? 我临时没有想到什么特别的例子,就说了一下不同国家及背景的co-worker的不同个性以及怎么和他们合作。不知道她觉得满不满意。最后是问问题时间,还谈到了中国的发展。她说她去过中国几次,每次都感到中国的变化等等。 还有一个小插曲我在纽约的地铁上问路的时候遇到一个Stern的教授(part-time),他说他刚从上海回来,他在上海有自己的公司。一路聊了很多我却忘了问他的名字。后来面试的时候我提到这个插曲,结果interviewer就问我这个教授叫什么名字,of course我没答上来不知道她是不是觉得我在make up the story. Conclusion: re-familiar with your application, 要引导她向自己擅长的方向引。 Hope this helps.
I remember 总瓢把子atongmu has a gmat 750, why NYU reject you even without feedback? sigh...
My gmat is only 720, still not sure whether or not to retake it and get a score that can match my name. My undergraduate GPA is a junk. Graduate GPA is near to 4 but people don't care it much. NYU part-time is the only school I applied & sincerely hope it doesn't treat me as unhumanly as treat atongmu, 小新妹妹 & ringringbell.
Good luck for diudiu & other NYU applicants in CD, of cause including me.
must750, don't get discouraged. atongmu got an interview from Columbia and will probably be admitted there, I think . So he will be in a better school than NYU. Since you are applying for NYU part-time, are you living in NYC? I heard the comptition for part-time MBA is much less fierce, and NYU has about 40% acceptance for PT program. So don't worry and wish you good luck!
