INSEAD: in, @ 'n' out

Ever since I graduated from INSEAD, aspirants ask me all kinds of questions about INSEAD.

Questions range from how to get into INSEAD, life during INSEAD, my life post INSEAD, the costs, the ROI, what courses to take, which campus to select ..well, you name it. If you are reading this I think that you might have one or more of those questions yourself.

I must confess that I started this blog with a selfish motive of making my life easier. I did not want to have to repeat the same information to people every week. So I typed it all in here. And I thought that I was done and that all I had to do was to share the link of this blog and use two words – ‘read this’.

It worked in the beginning. Soon more questions started pouring in.

Also I found the need to keep this blog updated as over time things changed. Things at INSEAD have changed, in a good way. I have changed. I was invited by INSEAD to become one of their MBA candidate interviewers which has given me more insights to share with aspirants.

In summary, this is an account of my experience before, during and after INSEAD.

Hope this helps you as well.
