All right you kiddies, I'm back. I was hoping for an answer by now. Instead I keep getting threatening emails from other MBA programs that want me to send deposit money to secure my place.

ChickenTikka, welcome back.

some posts ago we discussed if HEC is more generous with scholarships. this is important since prodigy finance does not work with HEC. what's your pov as admitted student?

I'm far too well paid and far too dumb to qualify for any kind of scholarship. I'm paying full boat wherever I go.

What is prodigy finance?

If you visit India look me up. I'll be in Russia climbing Mt. Elbrus in a couple weeks. Maybe I'll venture down to the Ukraine to seek out some devchenki.

ChickenTikka, you gotta tell us what you do in India that pays you so much! Us Indians migrate abroad in search of better pay and you've gone to India to fill your pockets :) Also good luck for the much awaited result.

Cyber,
I feel bad for whoever going to troll through this post next year looking for information because they will find endless-non-related discussions between the 5 people who actually active in this thread. Whoever you are, if you get to this point, I salute you.

A random citizen of the internet ( June 19 2013 @ 3 P.M EST) :D

Looking forward to that day. Case solutions are for people who doesn't prepare before INSEAD. I plan to go through basic of finance and accounting before I arrive at INSEAD. That should at least get me through the Core class. With Khan Academy, free education classes online, and a bit of motivation. I think this will be easy.


@ducceus

both my interviewers told me ''dont worry bout the studies part of INSEAD-will b a breeze,go there for the unique INSEAD experience"
m sure u will b a dean lister!

10 lakhs would be around US$22,222. Is that your average commission per deal ? Let's assume it is. If you do like 10 deals per year, it is $200,000 in your pocket minus minimal tax. I think Chicken should make around that much per year :D Let's me know if I am wrong

unfortunately 10 lakhs is about 17000 USD, and our dear chicken is an avid trekker and mountaineer..so i am assuming he holidays 4 months a year n wrks 8...n with the gift of gab he possesses, m sure me makes a 'sale' every fortnight..so he earns 17k * 16=272000 USD...but but but...he wud b taxed arnd 30% of his income..so he wud take home arnd 190000...yeah sounds about rite!!

One more week to go and then we'll know one way or the other (or stay in limbo on the WL...).

Have a great weekend everyone. Next week we'll all be on edge each time the phone rings or an email arrives in the inbox.

anxiety comes from having only 1 option. so fear of losing and uncertainty can be destroyed by having solid and equally attractive plan B
