Current INSEAD students taking questions

感觉基本没戏，如果你真觉得insead 是你的梦想，不如好好工作段时间，否则浪费机会，学校不喜欢再申请者。

嗯，谢谢你，我会选择读ms。。。不知道读两个mba可以不可以。。。。如果可以的话考虑申2年制的美国，不要求工作经验的那种。其实我只是觉得我本科学校不好。。。很难找到工作，找到工作也不会有管理经验的。。。。。

Information Session & Lecture in Singapore Campus

已
经和招生办的MM联系了，5月26号去新加坡的校园。12点到一点半先去听课，然后两点是information
session；不知道到时候有没有机会见到各位INSEAD的大大。机票已经订好，呵呵，还要穿一套business点儿的衣服吧，在青年旅馆住着可有
点难度。

这次是休假去新加坡玩顺便看看INSEAD。觉得是非常好的一个学校，国际化的环境非常适合我，气氛也很好的。我觉得MBA不仅仅是学习，其它的一些东西也是非常重要的。而且我想转咨询这个学校也非常合
适。唯一的问题是一年制，我以前一直是学工科的，一年对我来说会不会太短了？正好乘这个机会让我好好看看这个世界第一流的商学院吧。今年就要申请了。

背景:
GMAT 760/5.0  iBT 107 (低了点，见鬼。及格就不想重考了)

工作背景
五百强制造业 Engineer + Management trainee. 半年德国，四年中国。生产工艺。现在是个小leader。其间出差去过南美欧洲亚洲

教育背景
国内211工科大学IT的BE, GPA 2.7 (年少无知，希望GMAT能救一下吧)
德国某工科大学IT&AS的MSc, GPA 3.5

社会活动背景
组织公司球队参加各种比赛，包括慈善比赛。

选校:
MIT （几乎没希望，LFM要求去学校面试，但是一定要试一试）
西北，康奈尔... M7, 杜克，普度？INSEAD (可惜一年的，我可能会觉得有点短)

为什么要MBA？
最早是赌一口气，凭什么大家接受一样的教育（甚至有时候我们做得更好），做一样的工作，在中国的“租界”里面我们的工资比德国人低得多，还不如在德国作实习生。
后来了解越多，越觉得打开了一扇大门。不像以前只能看见工厂机床那点儿事。越来越觉得有意思，和一些非常优秀的人一起学习，工作。当然还有钱的问题。申了吧。

Why now?
合同到期了，就快自由了。

What makes you unique?
真正的国际化。中国和德国的化学反应。

How you plan to add value to the program?
中国和德国的化学反应。丰富的现场实际经验。

What's your long term aspiration?
生产/运营经理，或者咨询

nnm,stringscn,inseadsh and bolei, can you share the key reasons that you pick Insead out of dozens of top MBA programs?
Also, by any chance are there women with kids studying at Insead?  I want to have a baby in near future however, I do not want to miss a top MBA education in my life.

I heard that Insead program is only like a year and a half, which is less that normal two years MBA program. Is it the case? And how much I need to prepare for the study?

sorry for bothering with so simple questions. My understanding of MBA programs was from like three years ago.

thanks!

I had a female classmate who got pregnant and gave birth during her study at INSEAD.  I also know of many female classmates who are mothers (1 of those women's husband also went to INSEAD).  Regardless of which MBA school you choose, I don't think being a mother would/should hamper your study.  Granted, you may have to be prepared to be separated from your child (children) for a year.  Or the other option is to bring them to campus with you.  Of course, you would have to have your husband/partner come along as well.  But this phenomenon is very common on INSEAD campus.  We often see families dining together in the cafeteria, relaxing on the school lawn/courtyard, participate in events (national weeks).  In general, INSEAD is very supportive of students who come to study with families.

各位insead的同学, 我有可能在27号早能到巴黎(戴高乐机场),然后28一早就离开了,不过既然来了一次巴黎，为什么不去一次insead呢？嗬嗬，请问下是否时间够用? 如果可以，请问大家我从机场直接来学校怎么走方便么？之前是否需要和学校那边联络？还有能否和大家见一下，了解一下那边的情况

多谢大家指点。

看了网站,正好周五下午有infomation session,可惜就是没有课程可以听了.

请教大家怎么走了, 网上的说明从机场来学校要转3次左右的车, 看了有点晕, 大家能否帮忙告诉我一下呢.希望能在校园里见到大家!

1. 写信去预定车子来机场接，正常的白天时间有大巴，一个人好像是30欧左右/单程，可以直接从机场把你送去学校。如果是晚上，就要定private service，90块一辆车。

有两个选择：

a. www.shuttleway.com
Email: reservation@shuttleway.com

Tel: +33(0)1.46.34.20.86

b. PARIS CONNECTION SARL

reservations@parisconnection.fr
Tel + 33 1 60 70 81 12
www.parisconnection.fr

2. 从机场乘地铁去Gare de Lyon 然后再乘到Fontainebleau-Avon的火车（车程45分钟），到了Avon火车站，在门口乘A路公交车到INSEAD

Bon voyage!

非常感谢!!！请问lullaby是在读的学生么？到时候能和你见个面么，赫赫。希望签证么什么问题，能来学校看看呢，打算回来申请的
