Thanx Bexpat and btw congrats on the Admit!!
Had totally forgot that had to upload the CV as well :P

Bexpat
Hi Rohan,

1.Make sure you list your GPA on your CV. They'll get it from transcripts as you mentioned.
2. Definitely makes sense. The more the merrier. But you only get a fixed number of supporting document upload slots. So use them wisely with documents that solidify and enhance your application. I.e you volunteer a lot, a recommendation letter from the head of the charity will be beneficial.
3. Depends. It's quality over quantity. Recommendations are VERY important. As long as they get the message across about you it's fine. Examples are a must. It needs to be evident that the person writing your recommendation actually knows you well. Even better is to get two people who can write about you from two different perspectives.

I'm applying for R3.

Regarding the International Exposure section of the application page, does anyone know if INSEAD requires supporting documentation for the locations and dates we list out in this section?

I changed citizenship over a decade ago and renewed my passport a few years back so I don't think I'll be able to provide support for some of the locations I have visited, particularly those for childhood summer holidays.

They don't ask for specific documentation on locations you've visited. Your international outlook will be more strongly supported by your essays and your interview (this is one of the key things they check for) and not the number of countries per se that you've visited and put on this section.

Hi All,

I'm a current INSEAD student from the US about to graduate in a month. I was one of the many followers of this thread when I applied. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance regarding the application process. I'm currently a student ambassador for INSEAD so I've gained a lot of understanding of the program and process.

Best of luck to all of you!

Do they also send a interview reject? So that we may know that we've been either invited for an interview or rejected? Waiting for some sort of a mail. Hoping it'll be an invite to the interview.

One thing I have been noticing in INSEAD thread.. People are so much concerned about AO..

How does it matter which AO is handling your application?
Why do you guys worry so much about which AO is handling your application?

If there is something interesting about this, please let me know... :)

AOs are responsible for regions or nationalities (not sure), and different regions get notifications at different times in batches. Correct me if I'm wrong.
