hi
really sorry for replying late. i hope u read this b4 u go for ur interview.

1. What questions were thrown at you?
i had a face to face interview and it continued for almost 30 mins.
there were general questions like y MBA, y hku, how do u plan to network, wat specialisation r u looking for, how r u beter than other indian students who hae applied etc.
2. How many candidates were there?
I m not sure about how man candidates as all were given a paticular time slot. this year they r having 50 seats.
3. How many people were there in the i/v panel? Any Indians in the panel?
2 in a panel. one was indian. Sachin tipnis, he is the one who will take yr interview. along wid him was Chris.
4. What kind of profile and qualities they are looking for?
they r looking for ppl with clear career goals.
5. How long was the i/v?
30 mins
6. How would you compare hku with our desi premier league - like isb and iims one yr prog?
Depends wat r u looking for. in terms of global vision, nobody in asia can match HKU. and if we compare it wid ISB, all i can say is dat ISB has a brand which is quite known in india unlik HKU but then u will gain an unmatchable exp in LBS/CBS which r known very well through out the wrld.


All the best .... do prepare some nice ques to ask them ....
