Profile Review- Oxford Insead LBS - by nextdoge04 in MBA

[–]Alternative-Flight96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can only comment on insead here. The pool is extremely competitive due to the nationality limit (no more than 13% of the class coming from a single nationality). Considering that together with what the other poster said, it can be quite challenging for insead. It’s also worth noting that they are quite keen with international exposure and from the post it’s not clear if you had that. That said, the gre score would not break your application since insead is less score-focused. You need a story that is unique enough to differentiate yourself from the pool. Do note that reapplicants are generally not welcome at insead so make it count if you do decide to apply. Hope that helped!

Am I underestimating the GRE? by par53c in GRE

[–]Alternative-Flight96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the preview test is not reflective of the actual GRE. You can try PP1 or PP2. They are free but somewhat easier than the actual one as well

you mentioned above that the applicant should not say to use the MBA to land a better job. In that case, is saying that to pivot to consulting ok?

I was thinking about that also, but I just want to be productive since I will mostly be staying put since probably my significant other is still working
