I am planning on applying to HS but I’m hesitant about W vs INSEAD. I am not sure where I want to move post MBA (Europe vs US vs ME vs Asia) and so I’m looking at the most “global” name and network. Any advice on W vs INSEAD?

Apply to both? Can be a bit of a crapshoot, so admissions might make your decision for you

All of them, unless you are so confident you can get 1/3 with your current background. Realistically these are THE top 4 b- schools in the world and will help you reach 99.9% of your goals around the globe. If you don’t reach your goal it won’t be because you went to INSEAD and not GSB lol

I’d say INSEAD is slightly better than Wharton for Europe. But Wharton is a lot better than Insead in the US. So if you really have no clue, the weighted average suggests Wharton would be better for you.
