I was browsing the forums and did not run into the INSEAD thread for the current program! Come on - who all are out there for this year? I am still a little unsure about INSEAD as the school has been historically clear about its point of view on reapplicants - but this year bb10 noticed a change in their language for reapplicants and I think they may make their stance softer.
So: Who all are with me this year?

I've heard the same about consulting opportunities--you don't really need the internship to recruit with them. Also, a ton of INSEADers go into consulting post-MBA so you have nothing to worry about 
I will also share my interview experience from yesterday. The alumni invited me to his office for a 30 minute chat and it was very informal and conversational. He didn't ask any trick questions--he asked why INSEAD, why MBA, why now and what I wanted to do after. We spent most of the time chatting about his experience at INSEAD, some of the traveling he did and how he stays involved with the school today. It was super relaxed and he mostly just wanted to understand what my motivations were and whether I had done enough research on the school.
I'm looking forward to getting the next interview out of the way and hearing back on November 20th!
If you have any specific questions, don't hesitate to reach out!

Thanks for the updates guys! I knew INSEAD interviews are quite informal, which is why I'm sort of regretting not taking the interviews sooner so that I could focus on the scholarships (quite needed in my case).
Btw, I'm also planning to switch to consulting and there are a lot of INSEADers who have done so even in the Sept intake. I know someone who was in the Jan intake and chose just to travel on the break (no internship) yet eventually managed to land a role in strategic consulting. I guess that more than the internship, it's our own efforts that will get us into our desired positions. :D
