thanks for that party rhyme :)

necro, I applied to start off in fontainebleau. I do kinda wish I had applied for a singapore start though. A friend of mine moved to the singapore campus in Jan and says he loves it. He goes to school in shorts and sandals every day and has already been to phuket and bali to party.

I should probably know this, but are you limited in the number of terms you can spend away from the campus you start out at?

"What did you do this weekend rhyme?"
"Hung around in Bali, went to some awesome restaurant overlooking the beach, got smashed on some kind of wierd local drink at this nightclub and hired some local prostitute to spend the night on the beach. What a crazy night. Kind of an expensive night out though, cost me $2.12."

Fonty. I'm still waiting to hear from a few schools, but I'm pretty sure that I'll be in France next fall. What campus did you get into and are you definitely attending Insead next year?

I'd be starting in France as well if I go. But I'm waiting for HBS in 11 days before I make a final decision. Let me know once you've made up your mind.
