Yale SOM MBA Admissions Interview Questions: Round 1 / 2nd year student / on campus

My interview lasted about 30 minutes. My interviewer was a very friendly 2nd year student who genuinely seemed to love her Yale experience. We began by going through my resume and I was asked to walk through my academic background and my work experience. She took notes on my actual resume and she asked me what I would bring to Yale. She also asked why I needed an MBA, and more specifically, why Yale. The last portion of the interview centered on extra-curricular activities and what clubs I’d be interested in joining if I were a student. Overall it was a straight forward interview and I got the impression that she was looking for information to help get you accepted versus trying to ask tough questions to filter you out.
