I think YTP is only a couple of years old, so I guess the value of the programme is uncertain. However, it looks very good. I am sure IESE knows what employers want to if you are accepted in YTP I would be very surprised if you did not find placement with one of the firms.

I would suggest applying for it. When you are in the programme you can compare IESE to other schools and, if you decide to go somewhere else, I am sure IESE will still be happy since they solidified their relationship with an employer.

Either way, work before your MBA if you want to work outside India: the best international MBAs will insist on work experience.

Thank you for your reply.I have been browsing the internet for hours now and found that many people are worried about jobs in european countries because of the economic situation. IESE, being a spanish school, looks less promising for jobs in the non-european countries. Please tell me whether this is true. Because if it is, then I would have to return to my country with a great debt. Does IESE provide gmat based scholarships?
Also, do you think that I can do better than IESE with my profile(considering GMAT score) if i wait another 2 years for MBA?

I think this really depends on your goals. IESE's students go internationally, so Spanish conditions are not fundamental to its success. It's a strong school and you can see its placement reports online.

However, yes, there is the risk that you might have to return to India. Ask IESE to introduce you to some Indians who have done through the programme.

I think it's unlikely that IESE or other top business schools would offer scholarships based only on GMAT. They don't struggle to get people with high GMAT scores; they struggle to get diversity. Fudan does has scholarship support for people with GMATs over 750; so does the National Chiao Tung University School of Management . I'd also look at EDHEC, USC Marshall, Central European University and TiasNimbas.

Thank you for your prompt reply. This discussion board seems to be very active! I will apply to this program, I think. I could not find whether there is a reservation fee for pre-admission, but i think there will be. I am also looking at US based programs meanwhile. Thank you for all your help!!! I really appreciate it.
