You just submitted your application for BU’s Questrom School of Business MBA or one their many MS/masters or online programs – great! However, there's one more step! Now you have to submit a [video essay](https://www.tryvoomer.com/blog/define/video-interview) (sometimes called a video interview) run by [Kira Talent](https://www.tryvoomer.com/blog/define/kira-talent). Keep in mind that it is on that submissions that admissions will actually hear you talk for the first time, and first impressions matter! That’s why we’ve compiled a list of questions that have come up on Boston University’s (BU) Questrom School of Business MBA interviews. After reading this article, make sure you check out **[Voomer®](https://app.tryvoomer.com)**, where you can practice and get AI-powered feedback on your answers. ### BU Questrom’s style Before we dive into the questions, its worthwhile taking a look at BU Questrom’s style. Business schools have their own personalities, and if you really want to get into Questrom, understanding that is essential. Questrom’s culture is relatively different from the rest of BU for one main reasons. BU’s campus is very spread out around Boston, so there isn’t that much mingling with students not studying business (though you can easily find and mingle with them if you set out to do that). Besides the usual platitudes you’ll hear from admissions on how great Questrom is, one thing in particular that places Questrom in the top MBA’s in the US is how geographically diverse the student body is. The vast majority are from outside the state and around 1/4 are from outside the US. So when answering the video essay, make sure to play up your cosmopolitan credentials, how you’ve dealt with teammates from different cultures, if you are interested in learning about other cultures, etc. Admissions will be looking for this! ### BU Questrom MBA Kira Video Essay Question Bank **Motivation questions:** > 1\.
