Summary

This video, hosted by Major Prépa, features an interview with Denis Boissin, Director of Programs at Audencia Business School, and Frédéric Brétécher, a professor of general culture, discussing the new format of the oral interview for the 2026 admissions. The interview has been restructured: it now includes a collective preparation phase and a collective debate, followed by an individual interview. The collective phase involves groups of six to eight candidates who are divided into two subgroups to prepare a topic (a quote or keyword) for 20 minutes, then engage in a 15-minute debate. The evaluation is 40% based on collective dynamics and 60% on individual performance. The new format aims to assess candidates’ ability to collaborate, listen, and build a shared argument, reflecting the skills needed in management. The video also clarifies that the collective test is separate from the individual interview, with coefficients of 5 and 8 respectively. The speakers emphasize the importance of general culture, which is not limited to a specific theme but encompasses a broad range of knowledge. They provide practical advice for candidates, such as practicing with quotes, managing time, and taking on roles like timekeeper. The video concludes with reassurance that candidates are well-prepared and encourages them to enjoy the process.
