Profile evaluation for MiM 2016 Intake at ESSEC/EDHEC/Skema/HEC... [#permalink] New post   07 Oct 2015, 19:07
Hi everyone,

I'm gonna apply for the MiM program at French top B schools like those on the title.
My brief profile is:
- Graduate in a top university in Vietnam (of course universities in Vietnam have no international reputation), GPA 3.65/4.0
- GMAT 720 (51Q, 35V)
- TOEIC, IELTS not yet taken, but expect at least 900 TOEIC and 7.0 IELTS - I'm not sure whether an English level of 7.0 IELTS is enough for me to survive in France :(
- I have been working at Ernst & Young Vietnam (Financial Services Assurance) as an intern and staff 1 from Dec 2014
- I have some extra curricular activities at university: club, small project, some small scholarships and awards
- French language ability is zero

Could you guys help me in evaluating my chance to get admitted to those school and even the chance to get a scholarship like Eiffel or school scholarship.

And I also wonder about the opportunity for a Vietnamese guy like me without any French language to find an internship at France as I find that internship is mandatory for many MiM program.

Thank you all for your advice :D

Hey,

Well your acads and GMAT are good and the schools should have no problem with your test scores.
Also not sure but very few french schools require Toefl, especially if you have done your education in english while in college and school. So maybe check up on that.

EY is a great name, and the learning you gained there would help.

Also extra curriculars go a long way to showcase different sides of your personality, so they would play a huge role too.
French level right now wont be a problem, but yes while finding jobs/internships you will have to know a decent level of french. (But you can always study after coming here)

Scholarships totally depend on how much the schools like your profile and hence how good your application essays are. You can get some tips on how to write great MiM essays here: https://www.mim-essay.com/mim-essay-help.html

Also you are only applicable for Eiffel if you apply for the 1st round, but there are others you can still apply for.

Lastly, if you would like a more comprehensive evaluation of your chances. I would suggest getting a free profile evaluation at https://mim-essay.com/profile-evaluation?gcf

Hello Raghuljcm, your profile seems pretty strong on the extracurricular front. The admission committee will value your work experience too. However, the weak link in your profile seems to be your CGPA. You can mask your weak CGPA with a strong GMAT score.

A GMAT score of 650 would be enough but to be on the safe side I would suggest you to aim for a GMAT score of 690+
