  Your profile seems more than sufficient for any mim program. One of my friends got a call for the interview with lesser marks.

  However that's the thing. He didn't get in because

  1- he had no international experience & cems is the most internationally oriented program. so i guess u are good.
  it will be better if you speak more than 1 eu language

  2 - he didn't know why he was there at the interview. That is he didn't do a through research of which schools would suit him and why. He stills doesn't know his goals.

  If u have point no2 you can still manage and convince the jury to do without no1

  Prepare for the interview and u won't have a problem - not like me of course.

  Sorry didnt get your last question - with which schools are you comparing the reputation?

    Hi Mako,

    you should do a proper goal analysis first and then an analysis of the programs to see to what degree goals and programs match. For this, I can only repeat myself in this forum and recommend you to invest a few dollars and hours and work through my MIM eBook. It helps you for both analyses (goals and schools) and you will make a better decision afterwards.

    Best wishes

  Hello, I am also applying for German universities for the next term. I already sent my application to the Cologne International Management/CEMS Msc and will apply for Mannheim as well.

  This is my profile:
  expected Bachelor grade 100/110 at an italian university (tough my average grade, with which I applied to Cologne, is 24,6/30)
  GMAT 710
  IELTS 8.0
  1 year erasmus in Germany
  volunteering and some part-time jobs

  I am applying to these schools mainly because they are free, I want to improve my German and they have deadlines in May. Do you think that they have a similiar reputation? (considering that the "international" component is very important to me).

  Thomas, I am sorry for the late reply. Have been busy with my GMAT prep and essays.

  First the answer to your question - No I didn't, I contacted them directly via mail.

  Secondly, I don't have many question about the school except only that would I be admitted or not (:P). I guess I will find that out the hard way............. I have done my research, and it turns out WHU would be heaven for me. I want to be an entrepreneur and they focus on just that. Plus they have brilliant forums and platforms. Further more there are lots of small details which indicate both the school and I would be good fit for each other. I will apply next month.

  I just wish to have some company for German Appication as most of the students in all the forums combined are looking to study in either France, Uk or Spain

  Hi there,

  if you don't find anyone here, you can also send an email to the schools asking them to bring you in contact with a current student. You can interview him/her then by email or skype and drop all your questions.

  As for WHU, just use the REQUEST INFO button in our WHU-profile - this is a direct way to contact the schools as I make sure that your message is delivered directlys to the admissions people.

  As for HHL, EBS, and Mannheim you can find their contact forms online. If they ask you where you heard about them, it would be nice of you could mention the "MIM Compass".

  Best wishes
  Thomas

    I guess they will not entertain right now because it is the peak of admission season.::o
    I am saying this because....... they took a lot of time to reply to some more important technical queries that I had earlier.

      Did you send your requests via this website to the schools (I mean with the Request Info button)?
