I got an invite on January 10th and had my interview on January 17th. Waiting for updates :slight_smile:

25

Glad to know that I am not the only one who’s been waiting for his decision for a LONG TIME…maybe they’ll release all decisions together? Maybe…?

26

same here…

27

oh nice when did you submit your application?

28

Just got an acceptance letter!! Don’t worry yours is probably coming as well.

29

Early admission deadline, I don’t really think the day you submit matters though.

Congratulations :tada:

31

Congrats!! Do you remember the questions they asked in the interview? Any tips/advice for the interview?

32

Same I’m soooooo scared :sob:

33

Yeah! So they asked questions like these:

  1. Introduce yourself.
  2. Describe a time you handled a team situation poorly.
  3. Describe how you handled a negative feedback
  4. What did you with that negative feedback?
  5. What was your biggest accomplishment?
  6. What was a struggle that you overcame?
  7. Why are you interested in entrepreneurship?
  8. Why are you specifically interested in LaunchX?
  9. Do you have any questions about the program?

For the vibe of the interview, it’s honestly super chill. I had an interview with Duriya Rehan, and honestly, it was really casual from the beginning. She was basically just reading the questions, and I don’t even think she actually assessed my answers but that’s okay. It seemed quite procedural. She is just a senior in high school and LaunchX alumni, you´re not being interviewed by Steve Jobs or Jeff Bezos. Just show that you have a personality; they want money anyway, so just bs it. As long as you’re not applying for a scholarship, it’s easy breezy.

Received an interview request the day after applying RD, which was pretty surprising. Good luck to everyone else!
