Not much activity in this thread. I have scheduled mine on 31st Oct. I asked some of the current students and they informed me that interviews are conducted by students. They also told not to stress out for the interviews. Be confident and prepare for behavioral as well as common MBA interview questions.

Please share if you have any thing regarding interviews.

Oh great! I finished my interview about ten days ago. It was conducted by a second year student. Questions were the usual, why MBA, why now, why BC etc. It felt like a good two way discussion rather than a formal interview.

Happy to answer any specific questions!

I had my interview earlier this week. I know that they usually get results out much sooner than typical, but would anyone have an estimate for when I could hear back?

I feel 50/50 on how well my interview went, it was the first one I have done and while I did practice, I probably didn't practice enough, but I did say everything that I wanted to and answered all questions decently enough I think.

I interviewed on October 9 and received admission on October 16. They mentioned a decision turnaround of 1-4 weeks. Hopefully you hear back next week! All the best!

Thanks for the quick response! I do have 2 more interviews at other schools next week, so hopefully at least 1 of the 3 I have interviews for will like me enough! BC is still in my top choices though, so hopefully I hear back with a positive result.

Sure, no problem. The interview was very conversational with a second year student. Here are a few questions to prepare for:
1. Tell me about yourself (resume walk through)
2. What are your goals?
3. Tell me about a time which you worked in a team.
4. How did you demonstrate leadership?
5. How would you resolve conflict in a team setting?
6. Why BC?
7. What types of activities / organizations would you take part of at BC?
8. What and how will you contribute to the BC community?

I hope this insight helps and all the best on your interview tomorrow!

Well it's been ~3.5 weeks since my interview and I have not heard anything back yet. The portal hasn't changed at all either (unless there is a different one I don't know about, I am logging into the same place where you submit your application).

I'm just going to assume I was dinged or wait-listed. Best of luck to everyone else.

Hey guys any update? Did anyone try to call? I think those who got admission 22nd Nov is the cutoff date to deposit and reserve seat. They may wait for few days and then release the rest of the decisions. Please share if you guys have any update.
