Hi Everyone!

I am applying for the next round, May. I am currently writing my essays. From the ones that got in already, do you have any tips and insights?

I have been working for about 7.5 years in product management and development in the Fashion Industry. I do have luxury experience in Italy. This would be my second master.
I am from South East Asia. I have yet to take the GMAT, so I am opting for the conditonal admission direction. Then submit my GMAT once test centers open again.

If you have any advice! That would be great!

Hi aams07. Thanks for introducing yourself. Are you considering applying to Bocconi or Essec as backups?

Regarding the essays, it would more helpful if you presented specific questions on specific essays. Tag me and I can help.

I guess for all essays,use examples, be specific, heartfelt. Help them get to know you. Use plain language.

Thank you for your tips!! Yes, I just plan to keep the essays heartfelt and honest – plain wording.

I did consider ESSEC and Bocconi, but I was hoping to start on January.

Hello Varun, I got a response in around 3 weeks. But you can write to HEC (the person who sent you the application completion confirmation) and they will update you.

Hello Varun,
I haven’t received any update from them yet.
Did you get anything?

Also, has anyone else from R4 deadline heard back from them?

Hello - I dropped a mail to adcom. Got a reply that the jury would be done with the selection by this week. Meanwhile, it would be great to know whether anyone from R4 deadline has heard back from HEC.

Heard back from HEC yesterday night... This was their reply,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for the time and effort invested in your application to the HEC Paris MBA program. We have completed the review of applications for this round and we regret to inform you that you have not been chosen to move forward to the interview round, therefore you will not be admitted to the program.

We realize this is disappointing news and we want to assure you that our decision was not an easy one, we receive thousands of applications for a small program, meaning that there are more qualified applicants than spaces in our program.

We are proud that we are able to attract excellent applicants such as yourself, our decision in no way reflects on your potential to succeed and we wish you success in your future endeavors.

Unfortunately we are unable to provide feedback due to the high number of applications.

Got the same response. Hang in there, learn from this process and onward to the next one, huh? All the best to those who've made it to the interview stage.

Nothing yet. They were supposed to get back by the end of 7th May.
I am hoping that I'll get an update today.
