IMD or IESE? Advice needed

Hi rkv87 ..
Congratulation on the admits again
I have attended the campus open day of both and researched a lot about them. Both are fantastic.
IESE's exceptional point is its case studies method. IESE has a good reputation for consulting and entrepreneurship. 19 months is a good time to TRY something new (it's normal when people explore other industries after entering the school). Also, an internship opportunity is always good.
BUT let's focus not only on the qualities of the school but also on your profile that suits with IMD. I explain you why -

1. You have a huge experience of 11 years and should be around 32 years of age. Both of these aspects match IMD's classroom.
2. You have a better chance to go in your targeted industries
3. IMD's ICP and global expedition would be helpful
4. Short 11 months
5. Reputation in Europe for industries

Now, there are some things that you need to consider:

1. 11 months is short and 19 months is long. The total cost of both MBAs would approximately be the same. Somewhere around Euro 130k-140k.
2. After 11 months at IMD, you might get a short extension (around 1-2 months). So, you need to get the job quickly. I do not know whether Spain gives an extension or not. Kindly check.
3. Your age factor might play against you in the case of IESE.

The future is uncertain, so we cannot really comment on what will happen in the upcoming months or a year. I hope the above points would help with your decision. If I were in your place, I would go to IMD.
