dude..killer profile... 770 and almost 3 years of international experience... Since you are applying in the early deadline I'm assuming IVEY is your first choice... Not considering Rotman?

Ah missed the thread..Thanks Lezra for pointing me towards it. Just had a Skype interview with Ms. Karen.

Standard questions, why mba? why now?
Most of them can be found in the Ivey 2011 application's thread.

its pretty complex. Cost is an issue for me. I had applied to various schools for fall 2011 session. I have few admits in US and schulich in canada. one year Ivey MBA is a good option when I look at cost vs benefit. Getting work permit in canada is also easier. Rotman does not give scholarships so I am not gonna apply to rotman

It was with Ms Karen from Adcom, lasted it about 35 min.
Started with normal introduction round and a few questions based on what i said. Then the usual round of questions regarding why an MBA, why now and few questions based on the replies I gave.
There was some cross questioning as well, so be yourself and be sure of what you are speaking.
Few other questions regarding me leadership skills and how I have used them and also a few scenario based questions.

I am travelling at the moment as a result really not possible for me to be online for long, but hope this helps.

Let me know guys how did it go.
