Okay so I am in a bit of a situation with INSEAD.
I have been lucky enough to be invited to interview with INSEAD for round 3. I am of course over the moon and frankly didn't expect to get an interview as I thought it was a stretch to apply. But here I am.
Heres my issue. Somehow, I missed the whole language policy situation at INSEAD. Specifically the fact that I need a B1 proficiency in a second language to be admitted. Something that seems ridiculous to me is that this is not needed to APPLY but is needed to START the program, and thus, I was able to get through an application without any second language listed. I guess because I am just a dumb Australian, I never had a second language as a part of my core schooling and I have never worked overseas previously.
Here is my question.
IF given an offer, is there any way I am able to be admitted and actually start the INSEAD MBA program without this second language B1 certification? Has anyone heard of anyone getting an exemption from this policy? Is there any way around it? Or room to negotiate conditions of entry?
I understand this is probably a stretch, but for the life of me I cant understand why I even have an interview with them if I didn't list a second language. It seems (from my research) that it is impossible for me to reach B1 proficiency in any language by the June 1st cutoff. I am willing to attempt this, but I cant risk my whole MBA admission on this.
Any info on this would be great.

I think it's a bit strange that you got this far but perhaps they saw something and think that you might be able to pull it off? No second language whatsoever? Super basic?
I don't think B1 is that hard if you can take some intensive lessons starting right now.
