Current INSEAD students taking questions

Re: Porkman

There was no list available.  I just happened to run into a blog with a link on businessweek.com.  Many INSEAD R2 waitlisted guys posted messages there.  About 7 out of 10 I saw were Indians. 

No point trying to find the information you wanted.  Unless it's official.  What you CAN do, very easily, is to go to the INSEAD's employment report and there's a page showing the number of students from each major country (about 15 of them or so)

I wanna learn sth about the actual living expences in Font campus.

If attending exchange program, how much should allow for?

Thank you very much.

fyyy

我赶在deadline之前submit了表格，包括recommendation,但是official test report (GMAT, TOEFL)以及成绩单只有今天才寄出，他们收到肯定是10／1之后了，我会被作为round 1 考虑吗？

另外，看到另一个同学的抱怨，不仅要成绩单，还要学位证明原件，难道真的没有workaround吗？

谢谢！

又一个问题：INSEAD的申请是统一到最后的 final result day 才给结果吗？ 还是早处理完早给？

面试申请有pre-selected的，好像早两个多星期左右通知。

offer好像早晚差一个来星期。

如果住在Fonty，不开车，应该可以省很多钱，但出去活动就受限制了。

此外，Personal Insurance是一次性的，不是Monthly，一年600欧吧。在使用SKYPE和IP Phone的情况下，电话费一个月也绝对用不了100欧。

Thank all INSEADERS for providing us so many valuable information about INSEAD!

Just have one question:

My referee asked me whether he could send a Recommendation Letter in stead of the Recommendation Form to INSEAD, in his opinion, the format of  Recommendation Form fails to display all my advantages.

So, will INSEAD accept such Recommendation Letter?

I contacted with INSEAD by email last week, but have no reply so far.

R1面试了一次。从考官那看不出是好是坏。祈祷了。准备后天面第二个。
请问一般面试通过率有多少啊？

Most likely you have to use the standard recommendation form. You can try to tailor to fit the recommendation letter into the form.
