Some random numbers
Of the 359 registered INSEAD class of 2008

The Americans are No. 1 with 45 students or 12%
We are 42 Indians!!! - Almost 11%
France is No. 3 with 34 - 9%!
Canada - 23
Germany -20
Russia, China (12),UK, Belgium, Australia,Netherlands, Taiwan all stand at 10 students a piece
Even Portugal has almost 10 I think...
Pakistan with no loan support for its students comes in with 3 students
Africa all together garners around 10
Europe obviously leads in the continent race, Asia comes a close second
And we are approx. 57 nationalities...not bad for the diversity!

One kind reminding from the alumni is to watch out the indians. There's a chance you might be grouped with arrogant and sharp indians.

You can ask to change groups with the excuse you hate the smell of curry

I was once interviewed by an Indian banker and didn't get into the next round. Though he asked me a tricky maths question out of the blue and I struggled a bit to come out with the answer, it probably had more to do with my overall qualification & experience not quite fitting the job, and maybe, the fierce competition as well...

Just heard from another alumni from another top European school yesterday, the general impression of us Chinese applicants / MBA students is not outspoken.

More Indians and LESS Chinese would have joined INSEAD if not considering diversity...I'm sure! Just wonder how Indians get such a big amount of money to pay everything.
