标题: Admitted by Insead

Just received a mail - Jan09 Intake R1

Female, W/E 3+ y in Sales/MKT, GPA 3.3, ibt 107, Gmat 690

Thought I impressed interviewers as a non-typical Chinese applicant (no high academics - as above) ^ ^b

A few sharing on application -

I personally see real uniqueness and cultural fit with Insead. They target very specific applicants and set quantitive criteria at beginning.

1) ibt >105   2) gmat V/Q both > 70%  3) 2 entry language (for Chinese applicant, English+Chinese)

These're mandatory - Adcom will suggest you retake GT if they're interested in you but score is a only barrier.

Alumni interviews are casual and pleasant. My first interviewer is a swiss graduated early 90s and now work in China as a GM. We chat in a fun but transparent and deep way. He directly tells he'll recommend me. The other interviewer is from Singopore, younger and graduated 5y ago. No direct hint but feedback is positive.

After silent for ages, I didn't receive call but a mail 1 day before deadline for acceptance. Hope is always a good thing, maybe the best thing in the world.

A new journey starts in Fonty Jan09.

Cong!

My V is 70%. I hope it's OK. It seems that IBT is quite important now. What about AWA? Do they really care about that?

Thank you.

cong! another fellow classmate - welcome to INSEAD see you in Jan!

作者: howean    时间: 2008-8-1 22:38

IBT 刚出来 只有104, 想赶第一轮; 暂时没有位子重考。

不知道是Insead能否接受申请材料;如果感兴趣,再要求重考。

一個小問題,希望能得到解答!

其實樓主的背景跟我蠻像的,不知道樓主請了甚麼人為妳寫RECOMMODATION LETTER?

congradulations!
i got a question: working experience is an essential part of applying for INSEAD,right? if i dont have any working experience, does that mean i dont have any chance at all?

To summerfallen:
My V is also just hitting the thread 70%. For AWA, didn't find a slot to fill in the score in INSEAD applicaiton form =.=

To RickZhen:
Good to know u. Msn added and chat u soon ;-)

To howean:
保险的做法是先重考再申
但也看到不少例子,是先申请,再补考,不妨一试

To kumamari:
Recommendation Letter 找我两个前老板写,写之前都有很深入的交流

To jiemingm:
Frankly, chance is low. With euro 50,000 tuition invested, >2y w/e enhances mutual value added.

Good luck to all.

I think the right answer is: global perspective/experience is an essential part of applying for INSEAD. We have had students who have never worked, but they definitely have had valuable experiences that are outside of schools, ie, military, sports, etc. And frankly, it would be very difficult for you to participate in class discussions and group projects if you have minimal working experiences/knowledge to share and contribute. The whole point of case studies and group projects at any MBA is for everyone to contribute and share their thoughts.
