Master Exchange over Singapore or Continental Europe (HEC - Bocconi - Edhec)

Hey folks,

Glad to discover this forum. Have been reading in last hours. A lot of interesting topics and ideas here. I already benefit it a lot.

I have an undergraduate in Finance from a small school. But after striving hard, I've recently working in a middle office position in largest Asset Management in Turkey. Very respectful company locally. This year, I'm also doing my Ms Finance in best business school in Turkey (Koç Uni.) and it offers very appealing exchange offers. I already got acceptance from Singapore (Singapore Management University) which offers good careers services there.

Moreover, I''ll have chance to apply continental European schools such as HEC Paris, Bocconi, Edhec, Essec, Paris Dauphine etc.

I'm 26 years old and have more than 3 years of experience in finance industry. I need to boast my CV with a world class school exchange. Main reason would to create some opportunities abroad. I know exchange is not a degree but can help a person which already has worthy industry experience and master degree who has partnerships with these schools.

What would be your advice? Singapore is growing fast but doing less business with EMEA region, and I only talk English, Turkish and limited French.

Which schools you would recommend to create some new opport? HEC Paris and Bocconi will be list top right?

Thanks in advance. I will definitely consider your suggestions

Those two will be top of the list yes. You need to make a choice about what you hope to get out of the exchange. HEC is in a village about 45 minutes from Paris. Bocconi is in the heart of Milan. Some people prefer to be in a quiet environment, some don't.

I'm talking about liquid. Rich enough to have your own jet. Rich enough not to waste time. Fifty, a hundred million dollars, buddy. A player. Or nothing. See my Blog & AMA
 

Thanks for your reply.

Some says it's an exchange semester, so no need to contemplate this much. However, I still believe it can change someone's life.

What would be your choice in finance industry, Essec, Edhec, Em Lyon or Paris Dauphine guys?

That may be true but the life changing stuff won't be the brand of your exchange university.
