My school review
We have a large choice of subjects, we can study about everything and help us about everything too
IMBA - pros and cons
It was a project heavy masters, covering subjects like finance, accounting, management courses, law, marketing, as well as online Harvard Buisness Publishing courses. There are many courses, I felt like too many too fast, but that was my personal take. Many students come from fields outside of business, so their understanding of the material varies greatly, which impacts how much effort you must contribute in group projects. There are students in a French and English track, it seemed to me that the French track was more serious about their studies, whereas the English track was more focused on forming connections with other classmates. The students come from all corners of the world, so it opens you to new cultures. If I were to change something, I would remove the Harvard Business Publishing courses, which are online, and too long. It takes away from the coursework which is already a lot.
