The Wharton Exchange
To of course educate my loyal reader wannabe...here is a glimpse of how the wharton exchange works.
Everyone is given 200 points around the middle of P1. The 200 points can be used to bid for
1. The wharton exchange
2. Electives you need in P3,4, &5. (P=Period, the two month INSEAD term)
The Singapore-Fontainebleau exchange interestingly is seen by the administration as somekind of obligation the institute has for us and so they don't need us to spend bidding points. If net-flow is too skewed lotteries are used to pick the lucky winners.
Participants in the Jan-Dec class have a chance to go to wharton in either P4 or P5 while participants in Sept-Jul class get to go only in P4. Generally the demand for the wharton exchange in our class is very low because it is "Peak job hunt season" here at INSEAD and people don't want to sacrifice on this opportunity.
IFC / World Bank is here to recruit.
They are here to recruit today and they are looking at both classes I think it should be interesting.
Overheard in the bar
"I am throwing a costume party this weekend to bring class averages in the finals down".
