SgtPepper How did it go? Mind telling us a little bit about your experience?
Sure! Well, they specifically asked us not to give out too many details but I an let you know how the day went.
We were 7 participants and we had 3-4 people of admissions with us.
Started at 8AM sharp for a campus visit which lasted for about 20 minutes.
Then we all had a different program for the morning that consisted in:
- Individual assignment
- 1 on 1 interview
- Individual case reading
- Group case preparation
- Group case presentation
- Group assignment
Then we went for lunch and got assigned with a current MBA student for some Q&A.
After this we attended a very interesting Operations class. Each one was assigned to a study group whose objective was to analyze the case and present it in front of the class. But during the case preparation we were taken away to meet with the people from the Career center. And we finished around 4PM.
Contrar to what I read from previous years, no prior preparation was needed for any of the assignments in the morning, we had everything on the spot. And at no point of the morning I felt trapped on an exercise or something, they just want to get to know you better, the mindset among praticipants was clearly not competition. And the organization was flawless.
So overall a great experience that conveys a feeling of excellence for IMD!
