A. Bueno - INSEAD: Hello L. Shih - you had some questions?
L. Shih - Avon Products, Inc.: Yes, first of all thanks for your time to be here.
A. Bueno - INSEAD: You're welcome.
L. Shih - Avon Products, Inc.: I plan to apply later this year (currently preparing GMAT) and would seek your advice on how to stand out above in the application process.
L. Shih - Avon Products, Inc.: Sorry that it's a broad question.
A. Bueno - INSEAD: No worries - in terms of the GMAT aim for a 70% in both the verbal & quant sections.
A. Bueno - INSEAD: The goal is not only to have a good final score but to have a balance between the two sections.
L. Shih - Avon Products, Inc.: It is more important essays or on-site interview (or both)
L. Shih - Avon Products, Inc.: what is the weight that INSEAD put on this two parts?
A. Bueno - INSEAD: I would say both :) The interviews are conducted by our alumni in the city of your residence not onsite.
A. Bueno - INSEAD: We don't weigh one portion of the application more than another. I can honestly say that we value all aspects of the application equally.
L. Shih - Avon Products, Inc.: What about referral letters? how does INSEAD weight this part?
A. Bueno - INSEAD: Like I said - they are all fully equal. We don't weight one more than the other. The reference letters are completed via an online system. We also accept a 3rd letter sent in via postal mail.
L. Shih - Avon Products, Inc.: So referral must be customized, right?
A. Bueno - INSEAD: Yes - it is done in a specific format so that all letters are the same.
L. Shih - Avon Products, Inc.: Last question (and you can take a coffee break ;-): what percentage of total enrolled students obtained financial aid and how was the average amount?
A. Bueno - INSEAD: (I have to run to a meeting, however will be back this afternoon) Feel free to call or email if you have further questions.
A. Bueno - INSEAD: Best, A. Bueno
L. Shih - Avon Products, Inc.: sure, thanks!!!
A. Bueno - INSEAD: Final answer :) 20% of our students obtain scholarships and the numbers are growing.
A. Bueno - INSEAD: Average amount is 10,000€
L. Shih - Avon Products, Inc.: it does help ;-) anyway it's good investment considering INSEAD outstanding reputation. I indeed appreciate your time and clear answers to my questions.
