Yale interview completed
Completed my on-campus Yale interview today. It was a blind interview with an assistant director of admissions. A second-year student was also present during the interview, observing the interview. This was kind of a training for these students, who will conduct interviews as Yale sends more invitations. There were no surprise questions - usual why MBA, why Yale, Education and Work-experience. Interviewer seemed to be trying to get to know me and my fit with the school better. Overall, I think it went well, but we will know only when they release the decisions :)
Special thanks to brownoski for giving me some specific pointers on the new curriculum as well as for sneaking me in Prof Oster's Competitor class. You are awesome, man. There was a lot of class participation by students, and I enjoyed this class more than the other class I had attended earlier in the day.

yeah, sounds like it went pretty smooth and there were no trick questions. That's good, and good luck with an admit!)
I am doing my Yale interview on Thur so hopefully it will also go without unpleasant surprises.

Sounds like it went well.
You may want to prepare for future interviews with the MBA Interview Feedback Database at http://www.accepted.com/mba/InterviewFeedback.aspx .
And if you have a minute please share your interview experiences too.
Good luck!
