I'm in too ! Joining IE - IMBA Nov. '09.

Any others out there ?

[anagpal]

Hey BlackDog, were you able to figure out from the documents sent across by IE the deadline by which the 20% fee + contribution to IE Foundation is to be paid in order to reserve a seat?

Hey,

I don't think there's a deadline. Just reserve a seat in advance for your preferred intake.

btw.. I have an admit too. Contemplating whether to take the April or the Nov intake. Would want to discuss a few more things with you guys.. some apprehensions on Placements abroad and in India. Have heard mixed reviews on IE. Do share your take.

[anagpal]

I have also heard about some apprehensions regarding placements from IE Business School. But as long as you are decent in Spanish, I dont think it should be a problem. As far as I am concerned, I am looking to get an international experience through IE, and plan to start learning Spanish as soon as I finalize to go to IE. Placements in India have also been severely hit recently...so you never know whats in store for u!!!

[lets_see1]

Point noted. Btw, which intake are you considering and have you applied for any scholarships?

[anagpal]

I am considering the november intake...I have not yet applied for any scholarships...i have collected the forms for all the available scholarships for the india region from their website...most of them have the same 2 questions...i hope to get on with the scholarship formalities after submitting the 20% fee + contribution to IE fund....will look for more options of schols once im done with that...what about u?? april / nov?

Hi,

I have been admitted to the Masters in Advanced Finance at IE. Wondering if any of you have information about strength of IE in corporate finance and its reputation.

Thanks,
MIAF

Hi anagpal,

I too have got a definitive admission for IMBA in IE. But i am still in a fix whether to go for April 2009 or Nov. 2009 intake. Would be great if we can discuss this further. It would also be helpful if we can talk over phone. In between how r u planning to go ahead??

Rgds.

A thumbs up to ANagpal, Triggerman, Lets_see1 and v_g1973 !! Congratulations !!

Anagpal & Lets_see1,
The "mixed reviews" that you've heard - anything concrete there, or just the usual stuff about
1). the need for students to look for a job on their own, as against the Indian practice of a placement day/week ?
2). the need to know Spanish to get a good job in Spain?
