Just an update. Received a call from INSEAD telling me that I got accepted!

Also got accepted to Columbia J-term!

So happy to finally end the application process. If other Filipinos would like to ask for advice on the application process, send me a PM. Very happy to help :)

Yes, essays are difficult but once you have your first application done, all you really have to do is tailor fit your story to the other applications. Looking at the schools that you're applying to, you got a long ways to go. Good luck to you!

Hello! I'm a Filipino living in the US and applying to 2018 intake. Anyone on this page know any other Filipinos applying this fall? Thinking of opening a new forum for 2018 intake. Thanks!

I think you should!
Philippines is a big place and quite a few folks visit GMAT Club. Last 30 days we have had 23,000 sessions from Philippines. That's 750 visits per day.... (Most from Quezon city, strangely and not Manila)
