Reviews: 

"Since MIT and many other Top Business Schools have put a lot of emphasis on behavioral questions, it is important to know what messages you want to convey with each question. F1GMAT’s Interview Guide gave me a clear framework to discuss questions related to conflict management, failure, achievements and goals. The guide also covers etiquette and proper body language." Accepted to MIT Sloan MBA

"MBA Admission Interview guide should be in your required reading list for admissions and job search. Fundamentally, this book is an encyclopedia of how to persuade the alumni or the gate keeper, during an interview. The nuanced observation of how Business Schools decide and how to position oneself to leave a great first impression is refreshingly insightful. Let's be clear, this is not a book that you read and move on. You have to go back - again and again, to internalize the techniques. So much wisdom!" Accepted to Stanford MBA with Scholarship

"Having failed to clear two interviews, I finally purchased F1GMAT's MBA Admission interview guide. The common mistakes mentioned in the book resonated with my experience. It is an enjoyable read, but to get  most of this book, you have to read the following chapters, at least twice:

How to do Gap Analysis for MBA Admission Interview Preparation? 
Focus on the Interaction 
How can you control First Impression in MBA Admission Interview 
How to improve likeability in MBA Admissions Interview
How to answer the Backup Plan Question  

I have used F1GMAT's Essay Review Service for two schools. The interview guide is a special book. Would definitely recommend this book to anyone looking to cross the final hurdle. " - Accepted to Harvard MBA with Scholarship

"I'm a Software Engineer by trade. The international nature of my profession has taken me to three different countries. As a result, I've had my fair share of interviews, but when I was shortlisted for a Skype interview, I was in a situation that I had never been - no in-person connection to leave a first impression. F1GMAT's Interview Guide describes how to present yourself in a positive way and brings strategies to take charge of the conversation. I learned to apply the tips, one by one, in the actual interview. You'll find extra tips on how to dress, and groom (even if it is a skype interview), and set up the room (for lighting and sound). There is also a list of commonly asked questions for 11 Business Schools. " - Accepted to Kellogg MBA

"This is the book for anyone who is nervous about upcoming MBA Admission interview. It deals with the entire process, from researching the interviewer, getting used to the venue, influencing the interviewer with the first impression, answering just enough to facilitate questions that favor your strengths, and practical tips on managing nerves. The strategy to approach the Wharton TBD as a solution provider helped me see TBD as an opportunity to work my creative mind" - Accepted to Wharton MBA
