Calling all (MBS) Manchester MBA Applicants: 2023 Intake! : MBS (Manchester)

Hello,

Starting this thread for AMBS 2023 applicants, here are the deadlines:

Thank you KeyurJoshi for starting this topic. Which round are you planning to apply to?

Nikhil I will most likely apply in the first round, however, I'm yet to inform my referees about the application so it may extend till the 2nd round.

Can someone please tell me how long do they take to send you video assessment questions? If you have already completed the step, can you please share the questions you received for the video assessment too?

I have submitted my application for Manchester MBA in R1 but have not received the online assessment link for Kira yet.
Anyone submitted the application round1 and received the online assessment email?

I haven't received too.

Received an email from Kira Talent. But, they have mentioned 16th Jun as the deadline. By all chance, it should be 16th Oct. I have requested clarification over email but, would submit the assessment irrespective of whether I get a response by the deadline or not. All the best to all applicants.

Hi,
Does anyone here have a set of mock questions of video assessment for preparation? Thank you

They have mentioned 22nd Dec 2022 as the initial review/interview decision date. Is this the date we are gonna hear if we have been selected for further rounds or the one in which we will get to know the status of interview we would have already attended by then? If it is the selection for the interview, then what is the point of Round 1 application? Because Round 2 application deadlines also fall before this date.

Interestingly, I had submitted my application in R2 and got an email with the same deadline.

Can you share the questions that you came across during the Kira assessment?

+1

I have received the KIRA invite as well, I submitted the applications few days back. Is there anyone who has completed this for R1?

I don't remember the exact questions but they were along the following lines, I guess:

1) Why MBA? How you can contribute? Why MBS?
2) Contribution at work
3) Productivity increasing hacks
4) Quality that will help me in the long term

Hi, have anyone here received any update yet for the R1 interview result?

Not yet but I have not yet paid the application fees and somehow my application was still submitted? Does anyone have any insights on this?

I think there is no payment for application in MBS. I too did not pay? Awaiting round 1 response.
