From Veshti to Victory: A Whirlwind of Community, Culture, and Choices at INSEAD

 When I arrived at INSEAD, I knew I was walking into one of the most intense and transformative years of my life. Looking back on my journey through P1 and P2, I have realised that INSEAD is not just about the academic rigour.

Fontainebleau Footnotes: Unravelling the Magic of INSEAD MBA’s Beginning

These past three months in the little town of Fontainebleau have been a whirlwind. Interestingly, it's only been five weeks since we began our MBA classes, yet it feels like five months have passed. This sentiment is not uncommon at INSEAD. If there's anything that INSEAD makes you realise, it's the value of time, compelling you to hone in on what truly matters. An often-cited metaphor is that absorbing the wealth of knowledge and experience here is like trying to drink water from a firehose; the flow truly is intense and unyielding.
