Hi everybody!

I'm gonna apply for R3 Sept '14. All the application is ready except GMAT. The exam is scheduled for 21st of Feb. I'm not sure in myself, 700 is way too far, so I'd prefer to go for the next intake and reschedule the GMAT. Does anybody know if they are gonna request the same essays, i mean subjects? It's a pity to loose everything i did for those months.

Thanks in advance!

Most likely they will. They rarely change questions for different rounds but they will for different intakes. i.e. the questions for the January 2015 intake are now different

Hi all. Had my interviews and wanted to share the overall experience.

Both were in late January. First was with someone who graduated from the Fonty campus in the early 90s, second was with a alumni who graduated from the Fonty campus (but spent one term in Singapore) in the mid 2000s. The first was more inquisitive - she multiple times stopped me (politely) when I was talking to explain more about why I did such a step or what my thought process was. This went back to even why I chose the particular high school program I did. I think she was trying to understand my thought processes and in general trying to see my ability to get into the details of anything from my background. She herself seemed eclectic and had quite an extensive work history and was very international, both personally and professionally. When people talk about the whole "good cop" "bad cop" thing, I suppose my first interview was the more tough one. But I felt actually like the second was harder in terms of being able to tell how I was doing. The first interviewer I could read facially and she would otherwise directly say when she understood or wanted more information.

The second interviewer was an executive at a Fortune 500 company. She asked more traditional questions, the 3 whys, and generally about what I want to do moving forward etc. While I had prepared well for these questions and felt like I had good rapport with the interviewer, it was hard to tell how I was doing. She kept a poker face and didn't seem too impressed or unimpressed.

Both interviews were about an hour and had some small talk about INSEAD culture, MBA life, etc. I think I did well, but it is tough to say. Good luck to all those waiting for final news and to those still in the process.

The admissions blog posts are awesome. But I almost hesitate to get too invested emotionally before the final decision...so I don't read them too closely yet. lol

Haven't heard anything. Looking at R1 posts on the forum it doesn't look like anyone got a call until the day before the deadline - so Thursday for us.

From what i remember R1 folks got their app deadline extended cuz systems glitch.. So maybe thats why they didn't start getting notified until the day before. At least thats what I'm hoping to be the case so we wont have to wait too much longer...

Not gonna be very productive at work this week :shock:
