Tuck MBA Admissions Interview Questions: Round 1 / Adcom / Skype

Had an interview with a member of the adcom. We started with skype but soon the connection at my end got real bad so we shifted to a telephone conversation.

– Walk me through your resume (I guess this is standard for all Tuck interviews)
– Stand up comedy, now thats interesting. Tell me more about how you got interested in it and what you do currently in this regard (I had put it in my Interests section)
– What are your career goals? Why mba? Why now?
– Follow up to why now (I had only recently been promoted so she wanted to know why I’d leave)
– Tell me aout two challeneges – one at work and one outside of it – that you have faced successfully
– What is the one weakness you feel has been most detrimental for you
– Why Tuck? (This was my longst answer)
– Any questions or me?

I was accepted
