Hi, I have a question to all the successful applicants. I am trying to align my profile based on my post MBA goals and also to increase my chances of getting into Bschools. I have a career gap of 8 months and now that I have two offers, I want to know which way to go. My post MBA goal is to join MBB and to become a Consultant. (Preferably Strategy) 1st offer - Social Consultant (ESG), with a new Indian business services firm. This role is attractive because the firm is a start up and expanding faster internationally. Also, being a consultant will help me post MBA. 2nd offer - Program Manager with an international organisation. This role is attractive because it will give me opportunity to work in Asia and MENA. (Also might be a leadership role). I understand this is not the right question to ask in this platform, but I want some insights. Further info - Current GMAT score -690, Target - 730+. Regards,

Because you posted this in the IMD forum I just want to emphasize that they are all about industry industry industry. And they will pay attention to your goals because they don’t want to lose out to INSEAD or LBS. This is their niche and they know it.

Re: Calling all IMD Applicants (January 2024 intake) Class of Dec 2024 [#permalink]
I have received an email from IMD asking to share the official GMAT core before interviews. Is this a common practice that others here have also experienced? I have seen other schools want the scores after interviews stage so not sure if this a one off for me or the school.

I heard someone mention virtual assessment days. I know that in the past, people in India had the option of meeting in Delhi. Does this mean that we can now attend the assessment days virtually, or is it for a select few nationalities only?

Hello everyone,
I think IMD has changed its essay to: Tell us your story. (Make sure you include specific examples that would be relevant to the application process).

Can someone please give me some pointers on what kind of examples are they looking for ? Is it something similar to INSEAD essay of telling about yourself ?

I was interviewed today - Paola Eicher
30 minutes - 15 talking about assessment day
15 first minutes: you have to be very clear with
your participation
your interventions
what would you do different
what was challenging in the activity

15 final minutes:
Why MBA, Why IMD
your leadership style (be well prepared)
how will you focus your pre -mba career in your post-mba goals
questions for the Adcom

Can someone please walk me through the application process? Do we get to do video assessment immediately after submitting the application or they’ll go through our application first and then select?

Hey, does anyone has any tips for the “tell us about yourself “ question. Should I primarily stick to my professional growth or should I focus on explaining my long term and short term goals?
