MBA提前面试是给那些有管理潜力但笔试能力相对较差的学生可以进入MBA院校深造的一个绿色通道，考生及学校对于提前面试的重视程度越来越高，它在录取中所占的比例也越来越大。
那么，英语面试主要考核什么，要怎么准备呢？
一、面试评分
面试中的口试要求主要是从以下两个方面进行评价：
①考查学生理解并回答有关日常生活、家庭、工作、学习等问题的能力(3分钟)。
②考查学生连续表达的能力。考生从所给的问题中选择一个话题，就此话题表达自己的看法(3分钟)。
二、第一句话
见到考官的第一句话很关键，不用说的很复杂。可以是一个简单句，但一定要铿锵有力。展示出自信和实力。千万不要来一句“Sorry,my English is poor”。
常见的开头有：
I’m glad to be here for this interview。First let me introduce myself。I’m。。。(姓名)，my Number is…(编号)。
因为大多数高校，会让不少同学通过初试，所以参加面试的同学可能会有很多，每位同学可能会有一个考生编号，说一下自己的编号会显得很职业，正式。
三、自我介绍
作自我介绍—成长经历(making a self-introduction—developinghistory)，有很多学校要求做一个自我介绍，但是你要注意的是，这个问题并不是在请你大谈你的个人历史。
而是考官要在你的介绍中，找到有关你性格、资历、志向和生活动力等的线索。
另外在介绍性格和爱好的时候，可以适当地结合一下家庭介绍，可以说说父母给了你哪些良好的影响，千万不要流水帐似的介绍家庭成员……
四、没听懂问题怎么办？
如果考官问其他的问题，但是没有听明白，一定要保持微笑，然后用任意一句回答：
“Could yous peak slowly?”
“I am sorry! I beg your pardon?“
“Idon’t understand your question，could you repeat it again?”
五、常见问答集合
