Insead Round 3 [#permalink] New post   15 Nov 2016, 06:25
Hi,

I am planning to apply to Insead, and I won't be able to complete the essays by November 30, so I will have to apply by Jan 25, which is the 3rd round.
Does it make sense for an indian applicant to apply in 3rd round. I know that Insead has 4 rounds, but your input will be highly appreciated.

Hi, I'm glad that you're committed to spending a quality application. I would really strongly recommend as an overrepresented candidate that you wait when apply for j-term in March. You'll be the first round have all the advantages have the opportunity to do an internship and everything, I think it would make more sense.

Thanks for taking out the time to reply!
Applying for 2018 Jan intake is out of question for me.

As far as my profile is concerned, I am a 26 year old female working with Amazon and have close to 5 years of experience in marketing.

That's unfortunate. I mean obviously you could apply to the third round but it's not to your advantage. Most likely they've already accepted the people with your profile. I will say that your work experience is a little distinct, obviously it does help that you're female and Amazon has an awesome company. If you're interested INSEAD then go for it, if you're interested in a European school then I would supplement this with IMD or HEC.

It gets competitive in the third round. But if you don’t have much leeway, then go ahead with R3.
