Wish you luck! 我覺得實際走一趟後，面試應該更能有情緒的表達Why Columbia這個問題吧。
My background:
GMAT:760/5 TOEFL:267/5.5
W/E: military service-20 months, Corporate banking- 3yrs
10/11 submit, 11/6 interview
我面試是在台灣進行，和在Goldman Sachs作分析師的校友面試。
面試問題多為基本題，主要為：
1. Introduce yourself
2. Why MBA? Why now? Why Columbia? (很細)
3. Leadership experience (問很細很多，且會問人生各階段的經驗)
4. Achievements
5. Competitive advantages
6. Weakness
雖然問題頗基本，但這位校友一定要問到具體實例及具邏輯性才會停止。
有分析師在法說會上問問題的感覺 :)
我的準備經驗是先擬一個Interview Question Summary，上面有可能的題目，你的main idea、自身實例、和外部參考四部份。然後再找人作mock interview。main idea就是針對某個問題要回答的重點(3項)，在各舉三個實例，另外想一些時事結合。
例如：我被問到leadership那題時，我先講我對leadership抱持的定義及看法，其中有一個是integrity。再來講我的實例，另外外部例子，我是舉中信金的例子，作回答的guideline。我覺得心中有個pic，回答起來至少方向會對，也算有個架構。
should you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask me!

Hope to see you next fall, Michael.
I guess I can talk about my interview as well. I interviewed with a guy at Merrill Lynch, next to the WTC in New York.
-Tell me about yourself (Things that are not on your resume)
-Why MBA, why now?
-Why Columbia and not Wharton or Chicago? (I learned that Columbia and UPenn has a rivalry going on)
-Where else have you applied to?
-What do you do for fun?
-Questions about long term goal and what I think of China business environment (I wrote about making my entry into China down the road)
The interview lasted 40 minutes but felt like 10. It was very conversational with occasional jokes and laughters. I didn't really like Columbia at first, to be honest, because the facility isn't as good compare to other top schools. Yet, after you speak to a couple of students and alumni, you will realize that this is a special place. Everyone is very bright and very efficient. Although people work in high places, they are still very personable and "smooth."
Didn't mean to hi-jack Michael's thread, but I am inclined to share my Columbia visit with somebody =)

To lunar:
外部參考就是一些非自身的例子來加強自己的main idea.
我舉得那個是個反例，目的說明誠信之重要.
To 佳震:
謝啦, 兄弟!
上次烤肉沒看到你，本想和你好好聊的說...
你申請的情形如何?
rgds,
Mike
