Gerogetown($) vs INSEAD vs HEC Paris($)

Hello sufian193,

INSEAD is a fantastic admit and it almost feels like if you were able to make it to INSEAD, you could have made it to a number of US top ~20 programs; not sure if you applied, though.

Do check if the option of a deferral exists with the school (of course, that is if you are willing to push your plans by a year as well). If this option doesn't exist, you should, ideally, select a school in the geography you wish to settle down in.

The good news, though, is whatever you decide isn't going to be a wrong decision.

Good luck!

Congratulations!
You do indeed have quite a variety and a spectrum of opportunities. What a choice

Insead is really strong in the consulting space. They get you up and running with the skills needed (presentation, delivery, interviews, etc).
I don't think it is in the same group/band as Georgetown. No offence to Georgetown but it is a Top 20 program and not the feeder into consulting or MBB's like INSEAD would be.

In terms of moving to the US, you are correct - going to a school outside of the US would deprive you of the opportunity to move to the US and get a job here. Nobody would be looking to hire a consultant out of Paris or Singapore when they can do it in a bunch of places in the US. So you have to decide what's more important and feasible: Consulting career or US Location.

One concern and potential consideration is ease of being able to integrate into a consulting environment, esp in the US where you would be over-qualified. Here is a post to consider: https://gmatclub.com/forum/mba-after-30 ... 00397.html
