Hello -

I would like to know if anybody over here has any interview tips to share?

Some interview experiences, especially with European schools (Oxford, Cambridge, Manchester) would be really helpful.

Thanks.

Take a look at the Clear Admit Wiki. This website has become somewhat of a database for people to share their MBA interviewing experiences.

Also, think about purchasing How to Get Into the Top MBA Programs by Richard Montauk. This is the most thorough MBA admissions book I've ever read, and it has lots of excellent interview tips.

One thing I'd finally think about doing is reaching out to alums from your school who have gone to the MBA programs you're applying to. Call them up and ask them about their experiences applying and interviewing. You can usually get some nice inside information and question previews this way.

Best of luck!

One other site that I would recommend is accepted.com. They have a free, searchable database of MBA questions asked at the top schools, including Oxford. Here's the link: http://www.accepted.com/mba/interviews/advancedsearch.aspx
Good luck!
