Are You GMAT & GRE Ready?
Thinking of applying to the programme? A strong GMAT or GRE score helps us assess your ability to succeed in the programme.
Like many other adaptive tests, both tests require rigorous preparation in the weeks leading up to the exam date. With the right approach and proper planning, however, acing them is well within reach.
Practice the tests on our online simulators to assess your level.

Testimonials
Filippo Iguera
The MIM programme offers a truly international exposure by allowing students to study in France and Singapore, and, optionally, also in Abu Dhabi, Shanghai and San Francisco.
Christina Kim
One of the most memorable phrases I heard during the MIM recruitment process is the following: "At INSEAD, everyone is a minority." And INSEAD's diversity is not limited to simply nationality.
Robbin Duppui
MBAs had generally been on my radar for quite some time. I rapidly realised during my engineering studies that I lacked education on certain key business topics that I would eventually need to look into.
