Dear Camille,
Firstly thanks for taking the time out. I am a reapplicant and am planning to apply for Jan 2014. From what I understand INSEAD typically did not encourage reapplicants.
Have things changed in this regard in recent times?
Also is there a tendency for students who are interested in specialising in Finance to choose one of the campuses over the other? I noticed that one of the other members on this forum highlighted an article about the job scenario in Europe. So has this had an impact on the breakup of the students opting for a given campus?
Best Regards,
Dylan.

Hi All,
Getting back to some of you who asked about the job situation in this Euro Crisis context. I asked directly Mary Carey, our Career Services Director for some fresh news about the job market. Here is her reply:
Employment in Western Europe has held quite steady with a slight shift downward balanced by a corresponding uptick in Asia Pacific. For the most part, the kinds of job losses that are reflected in increased overall unemployment rates are not MBA level jobs. Having said that, worsening economic news does effect the overall job market. We have seen an increase in the time it takes graduates to find the right job and many have to work harder to achieve what they want than in times of more upbeat economic news. I hope that this is helpful. Things are definitely tougher at the moment but recruiters continue to come to INSEAD and there continues to be job opportunities in Europe.
Cheers,
Have all a wonderful week!

Hi,
Could you please advise me whether my GMAT score is good enough or do I need to retake the exam?
Cadidate: Indian Female
Work Ex: 6 years of work experience in Semiconductor Products domain in a French Organization
Undergrad: Honours degree 3.7 GPA
Highlights: very strong non profit experience. one in United Nations program and another in my own nonprofit.
International experience: travelled on short assignments to France and other travels to UK and Europe. Work with international teams and manage international projects
Languages: English fluent (Toefl 110), Franch Basic conversational, Hindi (native)
GMAT: 670 (Q 49 83%, V 31 59%, AWA 5 57%, IR 2 12%) and 660 (Q 50 90%, V 30 56%, AWA 5 57%)
Application deadline: April 2013
GMAT : highest
Q: 50 90%
V: 32 59%
AWA: 5
IR: 2 12%
I am particularily worried about my IR and verbal scores. Is Insead going to consider IR section of students for evalaution for Jan 2014 applications? Also, does Insead consider best scores from two different sections? Kindly recommend what should I aim for in particular sections incase I need to retake the exam.
Also at the time of application do I have to show proficiency (some degree certificate or something) for the 3rd language in my case it is French?
Regards,
Christy
