I applied to Duke, HSM in round 1 and have been invited for interview today. I just finished my interview by phone.
Good luck for everyone applying to Duke this fall.
Piyapun,
How was the interview? What type of questions did you get asked?

Hi there,
At the first time, I intended to participate in interview session in Bangkok, but because of some mistakes, I scheduled too late and the space was not available. Fortunately, the ad office set a phone interview schedule for me. I talked with a second year student who attends health sector management as I will do. The session was friendly and informative. It was not too formal, but was the conversation. (this is typical style of duke interview, I quess from many resources) We could share our interests during the talk.
-The first question is about your background-for me, I am a doctor and a shareholder of the clinic so I was asked about why I decided to be a major shareholder of the clinic.
-Follow by why now I need an MBA
-Follow by what is my strengths and weaknesses
-and big failure and achievement
-the last is about the activities I do for fun and let me ask questions.
Finish, it took about 30 minutes. I think that these are very basic questions that we should have rough answers in mind.( I forgot to prepare for failure and achievement T-T)
I hope this help.
Good luck. Be yourself and relax.
