Brief Report from World MBA Tour

shalomtang

2 - 5 pm, Nov 26 Sunday, 2006 @ Pan Pacific, Singapore

Tsinghua set a booth with 2 young ladies, look quite professional & converse fluently with prospective students in English.

CEIBS had a booth with 3 young ladies, nice brochures well down. Heard them discussing with visitors in Chinese. Quite a popular booth due to many Chinese staying in Singapore & it's perceived as the most established B-school in China.

Wharton & Chicago, empty booth, no show!

INSEAD: both MBA & EMBA came.

IE: Dirk with one EMBA current student & one IMBA alumnus.

IMD: most impressive thing about it is that two alumni turned up with two Jan 2007 intake students stayed for the whole event.

The major difference between World MBA Tour (topmba.com) & The MBA Tour (http://www.thembatour.com/, in September) is that the former doesn't set any entry criteria (so long as they pay for the exhibition booth charge) for the participating school which results in a mixed quality of exhibitors.

俺的几点体会

1。清华经管，说不收GMAT学生，持中国护照要参加国内联考

2。中欧，宣传册子很漂亮，还送手提袋，很多人拿

3。NTU，好像也不少人感兴趣，主打ntu-早稻田的项目

4。insead，宣传册子早早发完，印裔招生官员很有说服力

5。国内还来了上海大学的Global MBA，也不少人问，很多人对上海感兴趣

6。kellog在indian大学，而且排在印度管理学院旁边，很多人以为是印度的商学院。。。

7。门庭最冷清的是一个马来西亚大说，说是马来西亚最好的商学院，就没看人问过。

8。韩国的延世大学，和日本国际大学也参加，但吸引力不大。

9。其他还有法国的essec，英国的cass，瑞士的IMD等等
