More tips about HBS interview:

(from HBS current student)

-Review your essays and be familiar with the stories. They might ask follow up questions to address their concerns.

-Prepare additional stories regarding leadership, career, or personal achievement, in case they ask you to give some recent examples.

-English capability is key. You need to be fluent. 

-Don't make speeches when answering the questions. Try to make it as a conversation with interactions.

-Be natural. There's no certain type of "HBS candidate". Be yourself is important.

-Prepare some questions for them as if you really think of going to hbs. Show your interest and excitement about hbs.
