Int'l Experience — North America, South East Asia,

Essays
As similar to Ulmandy, I spent 2 months and have like 4 draft of the essays. I also stuck to words limit. All my essays are exactly at word limits, not a words more . I basically tell them how i got to be the person I am today, and where I want to go, and how INSEAD will help me achieve that goal. I did not hire consultant, I have my essays read by my college professors, an INSEAD student, and people that know me well and incorporate their feedbacks
Recommendation
I did not have an alumnus as third recommender.
Both recommendations know me well. First one is my former supervisor, second one is a co worker with more seniority.
School Selection
INSEAD is the only program I applied to.
