quick question for those already admitted do you have information about the starting date, when should we move to fonti ... etc , rent advice , I am coming with a family and I do not want to prepare things in the last minute. I am not admitted yet but better be prepared just in case.

Orientation week start Jan 06, school start the following week. Don't worry about preparation, once you get admitted, and join Facebook group, I will have a "welcome package" with most of the necessary information you need. Our little 14D community has grow since I first got admitted, we have about 450 members (including partners). Official number on MBA connect is 428 records

Send me a private message on Facebook, and I will give you the welcome package. You will know who I am right away once you get admitted into Facebook group :)

There is no exact number for admitted. The range for December class is between 500 to 550. If it is 550, then there will be 122 spot left. If it is 500, then there will be 72 spot left.

Well to make you feel better, normally there are much less applicants in the last round. Unfortunately I can't find any info about the numbers! How did your interviews go?

well the first interviewer feedback was: ( you seem to know exactly what you want, very well planned and can coup with the pressure of INSEAD but my only concern is that you need to have an open mind to what INSEAD gonna through on you, being well planned has its draw backs as well you will seek what you want and not notice the many other opportunities that you may never even have thought of in the past, I wish you good luck and please keep me posted on the admission result as this gives me self satisfaction)


The second Interviewer feedback was : ( Listen; this meeting is not about finding your intellectual level, this is about finding your cultural fit into INSEAD culture and to see if you are the same in person as conveyed in the essays on paper, I wanted to see if you will contribute to the study group as students usually learn from each other and to check if there are any concerns or red flags to be raised, and I can tell you I cannot any red flags to raise , I wish you the best of luck)

how do you rate these feedback statements ? I am personally not so comfortable of the first one as the lady had a concern !! what do you think ?

And I am fifth apparently. Had interviews last week, they could not find alumni in the country I am residing, so I had to travel to meet up with interviewers.

Good luck to all third rounders.
