Hi all, I'm applying to HEC as my number 1 BSchool. I apply to it and I will wait for the result of it before eventually thinking of others :) I would like that we share our points of view about this school, its program :)... I think that some of us would be glad to have more information and a debate over this school :) Why do I appreciate this school? > The atmosphere :)... One feels it since he has crossed the entrance door. People have a helpfull and warming attitude. The focus is done on a collaborative mode :)... It's my natural preference ;)... Competition among one another is already all around, at least, not too much in the HEC MBA. > The international participant : more than 80% are foreigners. It's exactly what I'm looking for as the key improvment of a global understanding :) > The program length is adequalty fitted to me : 16 months. That's just enough to transform myself and to not remain too longly out of a concreate occupation. Well, please, your views, guys

I am thinking of apping to HEC this fall, espescially since one of my UG alums ( now an HEC alum too) raves about it on and on. Whats so special anyway? :D

HEC Paris hosted an event in London a few weeks ago and Michael Scott, their MBA Development Manager was present to answer questions about what HEC is doing to make their MBA programme even more valuable to students. He mentioned that they are revamping the programme to focus on employability. Of course, this is something that every prospective student wants to hear. The new MBA will launch in September 2012 and was designed with the help of consulting firm Bain & Company, with input from major firms that hire MBA grads.There will be two intakes for the full-time MBA; one in January and one in September. Typically around 20% of HEC MBA grads go into finance, a further 20%into consulting, and 60% go into “the real economy" but they are priming their careers support and development with a particular emphasis on helping students who want to change their industry.
