Have I faced discrimination in France? My favourite HEC subjects? | 5 deep questions about HEC life

[@harshityadav3136]

Hi Mayank Your videos are really helpful! I will start my application process for HEC soon and I watch your videos religiously for insights. I get that you’ll be starting with your academic year soon but please don’t sidetrack your youtube account. Cheers!

[@MayankSehgal]

I'm glad to hear that!! Yes that's the plan, I definitely want to continue uploading videos every week.

[@anahavana931]

Just starting to think about studying at hec and your channel is super useful!!

[@anas1597]

I'm still waiting for you to answer my "placements after MIM" question

[@MayankSehgal]

Hey! It's a bit of a challenging question to answer because there's no simple answer. It depends so much on your past experience, the exact stream you want to get into, what your language ability is - I have to get information about it from multiple different sources, since being in the second year I haven't experienced the job search myself yet. And my principle is to not make a video that I'm not 100% sure about, so it might take some time to answer that question thoroughly :) I hope you understand!

[@hridaychhabria1266]

Thanks a ton for taking the time out and answering these Mayank! Most videos online only cover the applications process (which obviously is ridiculously important) but I feel like it's also important to understand how well a university fits into one's personal set of goals. I've been binging on all your videos lately and you've got me really pumped about HEC! Hopefully I can be there next year and thank you for your generosity in person! Also best of luck for your oncoming semester and yea, I'm gonna keep an eye on your channel for more amazing content. Cheers!

[@MayankSehgal]

Thanks for the great questions! Most questions I get are about the same things - admissions, profile, GMAT - but these ones were quite unique and interesting for me to answer, since they were based on my personal experience! All the best!

[@ArjunKumar-lt8jd]

I enjoy your content man. Keep going!

[@gauravchawla8050]

Please make the video "my approach to making friends"

[@MayankSehgal]

It’s already there!

[@rflemin3]

Can you talk about the ages of the students in the MSc programs?

[@RickandSe]

helpful. you help so many student to get information

[@AliciainParis]

It indeed is a useful information Mayank! :) I’d say it’s not easy for non-French speakers to find the first internship in Paris, but doenst mean that we can! We eventually all found ones🥳🥳🥳✨✨

[@MayankSehgal]

Thanks Alicia! And exactly! It's not easy, but definitely not impossible!

[@kunaljain2408]

Great one Mayank! I think you have a really cool way of narrating your experiences. Already feel like I know a lot about HEC, even though I haven’t reached campus yet. Looking forward to catch up with you soon in person. Cheers!

[@MayankSehgal]

aw thanks a lot, I’m glad you like it! yes see you soon! let me know when you’re here - reach out on Facebook or IG :)

[@ayushsingh6435]

Great insights Well made video like always.

[@katringyurova3064]

Thank you so much for your videos, I sometimes rewatch them when I need some specific information again! 🙌 Loved this one as always!

[@MayankSehgal]

Glad you like them!! thanks for your support 🙌🏼

[@gsg0012]

14:35 Yeah we need it

[@gabbrig9759]

Could you make a video about the application process, particularly about the interview? Can you apply to more than one program ?

[@MayankSehgal]

noted!

[@jayamoolchandani933]

Do you know if one can apply to the MiM program at HEC if he/she has a deferred MSc program with HEC already? I have a deferred MSc Strategic Management admit but still want to try for MiM this year.

[@etondeelong8813]

Sending much love and support from Cameroon🇨🇲, in central Africa. HEC Paris is my dream school. I plan to apply after my master degree in 2years but coming from India was it natural for you to talk so fluently in English? My country is bilingual and I want to chat with English speaking people to build that kind of natural feeling when talking for the HEC Interviews. Any tips?

[@MayankSehgal]

All the best!! and indeed yes English is essentially my first language since I come from a part of India where it is widely spoken, and I've been speaking almost exclusively in English since I was 6 years old (when I moved there). I would recommend watching LinguaMarina's channel on KZbin for English tips, and watching as many English movies and series as possible!

[@sohamdas7314]

Can you recommend courses to learn french fast.

[@spicyramen.]

This was a very informative video, thank you so much! I had a question, did you have to give toefl or IELTS?

[@ParisAlludu]

No need.

[@aakankshvarayogi2525]

As of now I heard that we need to get DELF certificate of french Language! I giving a hit on it!

Hello! This might be a wierd question but are there too many pigeons on the campus? Because I have a phobia of them.

Hi could you please tell us how did you get into hec Paris

[@MayankSehgal]

There are videos on this topic on my channel :)

[@AayushKrishnan]

How did u learn French? Is there a way I can do it in Manipal itself?

[@MayankSehgal]

I started learning at Alliance Française de Bangalore, and I continued here on campus and I practiced a LOT with French friends. There is an Alliance Française de Manipal as well!

[@AayushKrishnan]

@@MayankSehgal Tysm. Helps a lot. Also, wud u say that knowing any Foreign Language when Applying to European B-Schools gives u an edge? Not necessarily French

[@rishikaabbineni8408]

Hey Mayank! Hope you’re doing well! I wanted to know if there is a need to take any english proficiency test like ietls or toefl along with gmat/gre for the MIM admission.Many french universities don’t ask for this if the transcripts are in English and if the university’s language of instruction is English. Is it the same for HEC paris as well?

[@piyushgoel9529]

For HEC, it is mandatory to take TOEFL or IELTS as HEC has the philosophy of comparing applicants on a common ground.

[@nidhishenoy8008]

What opinion do you have for masters in international finance at hec.

[@hyperscar2496]

Do you have to show funds for the gap year too? I mean do u have to show 650€ per month for 36 months or 24 months?

[@althafnhusain]

Bro. I am 3rd yr BA philosophy student... Can i do mim in there?

[@deepalibaswa2421]

Hey! Your videos are really helpful! I am from the same batch in Manipal and found the GMAT and course videos specially helpful. would love a video on the application process and also for the MIM program would a gap of 6 months after 2 years work experience have a negative impact on your application?

[@MayankSehgal]

Thank you! I don't think a 6 month gap will have a negative impact on your application as long as you can justify it :)

[@deepalibaswa2421]

[@roychaudhury6904]

Hi Mayank, I wanted to know what kind of jobs do students from MSc Entrepreneurship (HEC-X) get post completion of their degree if they don't start their own venture straight out of college? Who hires them? Do consulting firms hire Entrepreneurs? I want to be a strategy consultant for a few years before starting my own venture...which program would best fit my career aspirations (Msc. Entrepreneurship / Msc. Strategic Management) ?

[@royalrecordsstudio]

Hi Mayank, Content of the videos which you upload is really good and informative. I'd request you to upload a video on scholarships offered to MBA students in different universities. Do having a 700+ GMAT score can get me scholarship in top universities ? Adding to that if I have 2+ years of experience in Sales and Marketing would give me an edge over others ? Guidence from your side would be of great help mate. Thanks in advance.

[@ameyashirsate9731]

Is gap year optional?

[@anubhabhadauria3470]

Yes

Hi Mayank!! I am a BBA student. Is MiM the right masters programme for a BBA student such as myself ?

Now that stats project aint possible trumps twtr got suspended

[@siannyrooney3730]

Sorry I can't watch till the end. I don't have the time and I'm already very depressed with HEC Paris. I just need to ask, are you paid by HEC Paris to do all this marketing and promotion about how good HEC Paris is? When it is definitely not. From 2010 HEC Paris MBA with concentration in finance.

[@shivanithesaucesstory4285]

why what happen ? could pls share your experience as i am planning to do MIM from hec paris.

Can an indian girl join mba in hec? Is it safe to join? Thanks for updating informations about hec.
