CEMS Rotterdam

Hi mates,

my professional shorterm goal is to get into management consultancy. I speak german, italian (did my bachelor there), english.

I got invited to an interview for following program: (100 get invited, 70 accepted)

http://www.rsm.nl/master/msc-interna...ems/factsh…

What do you think about it? I also applied to LSE International Management (rejected), SSE, Warwick and Cass. Till now Rotterdam is my first choice.

I am think about applying to HEC Paris, LBS and St. Gallen.

What do you think? Would a degree from one of this universites give me a further benefit for my career in management consultancy?

Best regards, Murmeltier

Useful answer would be very nice! Thank you!

HEC, HSG are the absolute elite, LBS MSc is fairly new but seems amazing as well. All three leaps and bounds ahead of the others mentioned. If you speak German you should also consider WHU - outstanding recruiting for German offices. All of these are targets for McK, BCG, Bain and Berger.

As for the others: Rotterdam is solid, Warwick as well. SSE and Cass are more finance-oriented.
