Hi guys,

I sent my application for MIM + CEMS @ ESADE, and I wanted to know if anybody is aware of how hard is to get accepted into CEMS. I scored 650 with my GMAT (I'm disappointed because I did much better every single test before that), and now I'm worried that since the score is not too good they won't offer me a place.

Is it that hard?

Also, for those who have gone through it, how is the interview structured? Can anybody give me some suggestions?

Thanks guys!

Hey,

Sorry for the late reply but I´m in china and therefore not that much online.

I wouldn´t worry to much about your GMAT, I got a 600 and got in for MIM + CEMS... they should invite you to the interview and that is where you have to show that you are the person they need.

I´ve noted down almost every question after the interview. (It was supposed to take 40 min and in the end i talked 80 min with him. It is really important to get along with the interview, so be relaxed, but take it serious that ESADE is the place you want to be. They want to feel that)

Here are the questions: (Some of it is in German because I can´t be bothered to translate it for you know, just put the thing in google translate and it should be fine)!!!

Interview Esade:
1. Describe your CV (Learn your CV)

2. Why Esade?


3. Why me at Esade?


4. Why Barcelona?


5. Why MIM?


6. Why CEMS?


7. Different Universities? Kings, Cass (London, mega int.) Esade mehr in depth, Stockholm and Copenhagen

8. What would you do if you are not taken for CEMS?
