Hi,

I am a Sep'13 applicant. However, I may be able to submit my application only at the last moment of the deadline. I am still in my essay editing stage! Have heard that you should apply either in R1 or atleast 2 weeks before R2 deadline. Any suggestions/clarifications on the same?

Much thanks in advance.

As per my research, the proportion of admitted to applied is the same for R1 and R2. I haven't heard of applying 2 weeks before R2 deadline thing - I would not think it to be that way, as INSEAD doesn't have a rolling admission process, hence all applications before R2 should be treated in an similar manner (immaterial of the date of submission).

Having said that, my views are totally based on my research and hence please do not take my word for it.

Thanks for the instant response! Do you know if all the interview calls posted above are of R1 or R2 applicants? I guess that would pretty much give us an answer.

These are interview invites for R1 (September 2013 Intake).

Does anyone have a list of INSEAD reference (recommendation) questions for the September 2013 intake? I just wanted to see it so could better inform my recommender on what exactly to highlight.

You probably should send them a reminder email and then give them a call in the next couple of days.

I am still waiting to know who my second interviewer is.

Hey guys ! Guess some of you must've been done with at least one interview by now. How about sharing your experiences ?
I am done with one interview, and I must say it was a good experience. The whole interview was more of a conversation, wasn't structured at all, contrary to what I had thought. Infact my interview started with Why INSEAD? It went on for good one hour.

My next interview is after 2 weeks.

My first interview is on Friday. Haven't scheduled the second one yet. They are still trying to sort out my second interviewer, the original interviewer couldn't do the interview.

Nice. You must be one of the first ones to have completed both interviews. I believe we are supposed to hear back by the 20th of Dec.

I have completed both my interviews and it was indeed very pleasant and conversational. Both were about one hour long and from what i understand they were only checking the veracity of our application and evaluating fit
(feedback from one of the interviewers). both of them gave me feedback at the end saying they would recommend me to the adcom. just wanted to check if others have got any inputs?

Hi - I need some quick help on how to submit scores to INSEAD. What I did was:
1. Go to mba . com
2. 'Submit Score to School'
3. Search option - Insead
4. INSEAD- MBA Full-Time, FountainBleau
5. Pay 28$

Now why I am confused is cause I couldn't locate the option to enter the code INSEAD mentions on its website. Also,I couldn't see INSEAD Singapore as an option. (I am applying for SGP)

So, whatever steps I have mentioned , do they seem to be right? Should I go ahead and submit my score in the very same manner?

it seems fine. you will get an email at your registered id mentioning that the score was sent to insead in a day or two. insead is indeed listed as one campus only and no separate option for singapore. teh code is only used for locating the school but you can also do that teh way you mentioned (by searching for it).

I had my first interview yesterday with the CIO of a leading investment management company in South Africa. He was very nice It wasn't as hectic as I thought it would be. Most of the time we discussed the interviewer's experiences at INSEAD. The whole session was about an hour and 20mins long. Asked the usual 'why' questions but indirectly.

Next one is tomorrow. Keeping fingers crossed.
