Admissions committees evaluate the GMAT/GRE in context — your background, your representation in the applicant pool, the strength of everything else in your file. The same score works for one candidate and falls short for another with identical numbers.

Hi All,
I would like to pursue MBA focused on Entrepreneurship. Please throw some light upon the difference between Essec and Emlyon in terms of Entrepreneurship specialisation and which is good. As per my research Emlyon MBA is pretty good at Entrepreneurship but lack good career service, whereas Essec has good career service, but not sure of the Entrepreneurship at Essec. My short team goal is to work for few years after graduation in France and then to become an Entrepreneur. Out of these two schools, please share the pros and cons of both MBA programs.
I am a non European and don't know French. Just started with French basics.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
ESSEC have a whole branch dedicated to entrepreneurship where they also invest in student or alumni's business ideas and help them launch their start-up. Look it up! It's called ESSEC Ventures.
ESSEC also provide great career support and many networking opportunities in France and internationally which will help you find a job. Employment however (as with most if not all MBAs) is not guaranteed and depending on what you want to do, French language skills may be necessary. Paris is the best place to find work as a foreigner particularly if you aren't good at French so I would recommend going there regardless.
Hope this helps you with information about ESSEC!

Hi,
I'm a GMAT teacher and MBA Coach in France, so I can shed a bit of light on this debate, as I've had many hundreds of students specifically seeking to study in the French market. To begin with EMLYON, as far as I understand, it was once viewed as one of the better MBA institutions in France, just after INSEAD and HEC, but has now fallen out of favor. To be frank, I have not had a single student apply to EMLYON in the last year. Though ESSEC is still on the lips of many individuals, but the school has a predatory approach to its ranking (e.g., forcing students to validate their years by taking the GMAT to receive higher scores). As for French, while it might be nice to know, I believe both MBA programs are taught in English.
If you're looking to work in France, HEC or INSEAD might be better bets. What are your metrics? Are you pursuing this degree straight out of school? Did you complete the GMAT or GRE?
