Global - INSEAD. Established and the “go-to” for Europe along with LBS.

USA - everyone will recognize Yale without even knowing their MBA program is in relative infancy

What good is global prestige? If you come up with other metrics or goals you might get more meaningful responses.

INSEAD for global prestige if that’s your only metric...

Depends. Prestige from other MBA holders? Or prestige based on general recognition? The Yale name is very strong internationally, and the program is what, top15 in the US now? I’d say that’s better global prestige overall, whereas INSEAD will look better to European-based firms / international C-suite.

I heard (again ‘heard’) job opportunities are skewed towards Europe. So if that is a factor, do consider it. Take obviously would be skewed towards US opportunities. But then there s the pain of H1B (if you are not American or have a permanent residency status).

I hear so many conflicting perspectives about Insead’s reputation. It surprises me when people say that international c-suite would value insead over yale because sometimes people’s reaction to insead is - the pay and party your way through an mba school. My gut feeling is that the yale name would be more valuable to most across the board (mba holders, c-suite, etc). But then again this view is consistently challenged and I can’t really get a good grasp of just how reputable insead actually is.

Is anyone on a low dose of Adderall or a similar stimulant, and do you find it helpful/effective?

When I was diagnosed (at 20 yo) I started on Adderall XR and my psychiatrist essentially took a “keep upping the dose until you feel side effects” approach, even though I still saw some benefits at a lower dose. I’m currently unmedicated and am somewhat hesitant to restart, but feel I could see some benefit and better stability with the help of medication.
