Hi All,
I am an IT engineer with 3 years exp. Have a little bit of diverse experience in leadership as currently I am leading the cultural group of my company in the location for Associate Engagement activities. Aside from this, I have over 3+ part time experience during college in multi-level marketing.
My profile summary is as follows:
Class X - 93.8%
Class XII - 84.8%
CGPA - 6.85/10
GMAT - 710

Considering my poor GPA, can anyone pls comment on my chances at ESSEC?

Hello everyone,

I guess we are very few! Anyway, I recently got admitted to Essec GMBA program in their Digital Business major.

Wanted to know how others are fairing, also I have couple of more converts so not sure whether to join Essec or not, as its a very very new program!

Lets connect, discuss, and leverage the small community we have!

Cheers!

Hi there,
I am applying to GMBA, strategy and management major (deadline 15 MAR). I am also considering other options but I wouldn't mind at all being admitted. Where else are you applying to?

Hey.. I got into Essec GMBA, Asia Pacific campus.. Did you apply for France or Singapore?

I have the same dilemma.. There are very few reviews on the Singapore campus, can someone throw some light on the reputation on the college..

Hi,

I received the final offer for Global MBA, Strategy & Management Track at ESSEC Asia-Pacific Campus in Singapore. It seems there are just two or three people here on the thread for GMBA.

Anyone else out there joining the 2017-2018 class?

Hello!

I am taking the GMAT on April 23 and will be submitting my application later this week for the Strategy & Management Global MBA in France.

To those admitted, how was the interview?

Also, does anyone know the average cohort size?

Congratulation Himanshu!

I was supposed to go, but decided otherwise at the last moment.
Ping me if you need more info.

Hi I applied for the same major in France. They interviewed me last 5 APR via Skype. It took about 30 minutes and the atmosphere was relaxed but professional at the same time. They asked a lot about my past experience, personal life and of course goals and why an MBA in ESSEC would help me achieve those goals. No surprises or weird questions.

Hi All, I got accepted to the GMBA program (2017-18), Cergy, France - anyone else in this forum who is joining the Cergy campus?

Also, is there any forum/thread that will put me in touch with other students who are joining the program? I'm just getting started with the process and have tons of questions. Thanks!
