If you’re based in any of the above Asian countries and you’re considering an MBA you can join INSEAD this month for a special master class & MBA information session. Also, there are still spaces in Kuala Lumpur for the one to one ‘coffee chat’ session but you’ll need to register soon to avoid disappointment.
Reviews from the students…
For a first hand view on the INSEAD MBA program experience here are two views from the MBA co-hort of 2011:
“One of the main reasons I chose INSEAD was the pace and lifestyle – I appreciate the efficiency and can-do style of “Why two years when we can achieve it all in 365 days?” approach. From what I heard, INSEAD’s fastlearning- fast-living environment was action packed like no other. Now I know it’s all true. The alumni I met also won me over with their passion for the school and passion for life. I thought to myself: “If my INSEAD classmates are like them, I’ve definitely made the right choice.”And I was right. The classroom experience is interactive and hyperactive. We do things from holding heated (yet civil) debates on ethical issues like foreign convenience bribery to counting M&Ms to see if the probability of finding red ones conforms to company advertising. Note: eating while counting does not help. What will I take away at the end of the year? Much learning, many friendships, an amazing network…oh, and passport stamps. Lots and lots of passport stamps!” (Kelly Sun, American/Chinese, Class of December 2011)
“I considered other schools, but INSEAD offered the chance to meet the entire world in just one place…With many different nationalities and backgrounds in the classroom, you learn so much more. And, as Ghana is a matriarchal society, I’m not shy about adding my own perspective! When you arrive at INSEAD you’re assigned to a diverse study group. In mine, there’s a Russian scientist, French and Pakistani engineers, a US trader – and me. We’ve learned a lot from our differences but also found a lot in common: our sense of humour, our love of food, our family lives…deep down we’re all young people with similar ambitions.” (Asie Arkhurst, Ghanaian, Class of July 2011)
