I am admitted for CEMS MiM at ESADE as well. I have to choose soon. I am also admitted at Bocconi and HEC among others, but we'll see..
I'll be in BCN in a couple of weeks to visit the city and the campus. Hopefully that'll help me choose..

Hi!
It was pretty chill.. Reina is sweet and calm so that eases out any nerves. thecase study is like 2 pages long with 5 questions. Mine was on Burberry and they had a CEO change. It was pretty doable- doesn't require alot of prior knowledge

the actual interview was conversational. why ESADE? Why International Bs? Why should we take you? What plans after? If your plans dont work out whats plan b? describe yourself in one word? describe your international travels in one line

a few more questions- but I cant remember.. Just be yourself and smile! :-D

I'll also be at ESADE for the International Management/CEMS Master next fall. I picked ESADE over HEC's Grande Ecole program since ESADE's program seems to be a better fit to me personally.

Yeah, I'm also thinking of going to ESADE intead of HEC. I'm just not sure whether HEC has a better international reputation, with ESADE being a rather young University. I also do not know how much more prestigeous the CEMS program is compared to a double degree program at HEC..
Btw, how come you didnt apply for any London BS?

I think HEC's reputation is slightly better but I think it won't make much of a difference unless you want to get into Investment Banking. Still, ESADE is one of the best b-schools in Europe and it's on the rise. At that point it's more of a personal decision.

Not going to London is basically a financial decision. It's probably only 15k more but i get a 20% scholarship at ESADE. Id have to take out a loan for LBS and I definitely do not want to do that.
