The following Michigan / Ross MBA interview questions & report were submitted to Clear Admit by a Round 2 applicant. Good luck to them!
The interview was rapid-fire questions, and not too much probing or follow-up on any answers. I stayed for team exercise afterwards which was much more pleasant and enjoyable than I had expected.
Here are the questions I was asked:
- Tell me about yourself.
- Why an MBA?
- Why Ross?
- What kind of people would you pick to be on a team and why?
- When is time you had to deal with a professional or personal change?
- Talk about a mistake/failure you made or experienced.
- Talk about a time you were in an ambiguous situation and how you dealt with it.
- Talk about a time you used data to make a decision or propose a new initiative.
- When is a time you led a team outside of work?
- What is something not on your resume that I should know or that you’d like to share?
Share a fun fact about yourself.
Overall, it was a fairly straightforward behavioral interview with expected questions. Adcom members were very welcoming and engaged with prospective students. Current students showed up in huge numbers to support interview day and to talk to applicants, which I think speaks highly to their culture.
