Wharton MBA Admissions Interview Questions: Round 2 / Alum / Off-Campus

I had my interview on a weekend with the Wharton alum. It lasted roughly 50 minutes. The interview was quite laid back though I could not really tell what my interviewer was thinking. My interviewer wrote notes during the whole interview but kept eye contact.

I led the first 20 minutes of the interview and logically answered the following questions:

  • walk through the resume? (10 minutes)
  • short term and long term goals?
  • why Wharton?

Then, for the next 30 minutes:

  • Describe a time when you had to work with a difficult team member
  • What do you do if you disagree with someone?
  • Anything you would like to discuss or would like the Adcom to know about you?
  • Questions for me?

I was not asked the “Why now” question though I covered it partially in the first 10 minutes of the interview.

Good luck and thanks to previous contributors.
