title: What GMAT Scores Do You Need To Get Admitted to the Best MBA Programs in Europe?
description: If you're applying to an MBA in the US or in Europe then you'll usually need to sit the GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test). This test of written, spoken, quantitative, analytical, and reading skills is supposed to indicate your aptitude for management-type tasks and roles. It is therefore often used as part of the admissions assessment for MBAs. But what kind of GMAT score should you have to apply for the best MBA programs in Europe? Read on to find out, with example GMAT admission scores shown below. MBA, University of Oxford (Saïd) “GMAT: While we don't ask for a minimum score, we recommend that candidates apply with a GMAT score of 650 or above. Our current class has an average GMAT score of around 690.” MBA, Imperial College Business School “If you are taking the GMAT, you will need an overall score of at least 600 – although a stronger score will add more weight to your application. There are no minimum requirements for the different sections of the GMAT, although ideally, we are looking for a well-balanced test with good performance in all areas – with particular attention paid to the quantitative section.” MBA, Cambridge Judge Business School “We do not request a specific score range, but our average GMAT score in each cohort is c.690.” MBA, HEC Paris “The average GMAT score for the class of 2017 is 690. We strongly encourage our candidates to submit a GMAT with balanced scores above 60% for the quantitative and verbal sections.” MBA, London Business School “Our average GMAT score for the Class of MBA2018 is 707 and we look closely at all elements of a score. The minimum score is 600. The typical class range is 600 to 800. Although a good score is preferable, the GMAT is just one of several admission criteria. Just as a high score does not guarantee admission, a below average score does not always eliminate a candidate. “ Executive MBA, Stockholm School of Economics “GMAT (total score) of 600 or more.” The Copenhagen Full-time MBA, Copenhagen Business …

title: What GMAT Scores Do You Need To Get Admitted to the Best MBA Programs in the US?
description: One common requirement for applying for an MBA is a GMAT score. The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) is a test to assess the skills that will be useful for studying management: analytical skills, writing skills, quantitative skills, verbal skills, and reading skills. You will need to take a GMAT test and have your scores ready before you start applying for MBAs. But what is a good GMAT score? What should you be aiming for? To help you judge this, we've compiled a list of the GMAT requirements for some of the top MBA programs in the US. MBA, Harvard Business School “There is no minimum GMAT or GRE to apply and we do not have a bias toward one test or the other. If you look at our class profile, you can see that we have a wide range of GMAT scores in the current first year class. If you do test multiple times, you may report your best score, and we will only look at the scores from the single test sitting you report in your application.” The current class composition of HBS achieved a median GMAT score of 730. The middle 80% of the class scored between 690 and 760 on the GMAT. MBA, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Sloan) The average GMAT score of the MBA class of 2018 was 724, with the middle 80% of the class scoring between 690 and 760 on the GMAT. MBA, Graduate School of Business at Stanford University “While there is no minimum GMAT or GRE score requirement for graduate study at Stanford, admitted candidates typically perform well.” In the class of 2016, average GMAT scores with 737, with a range of 590 – 790. MBA, University of Pennsylvania (Wharton) The MBA students at Wharton for the class of 2018 achieved an average GMAT score of 730, with the average scores falling between 570 and 780. MBA, Columbia The typical profile of a Columbia MBA student can be seen in the 2016 class profile. In this class, GMAT scores were as follows: “GMAT Scores (average): 717 GMAT Scores (range): 550–780 GMAT Scores (middle 80%): 680–760” MBA, University of Chicago (B…

title: What IELTS Scores Do You Need To Get Admitted to the Best MBA Programs in Europe?
description: One requirement of an MBA course that you will definitely have to consider is the language requirement. Many MBA courses in Europe are taught in English, and if you're not a native English speaker then you will need to prove your ability to speak, write, listen, and read in English. If you've studied in English before, for example if your undergraduate course was in English, then this will fulfil the language requirement for most courses. But if you haven't, then you'll need to take a language test like the TOEFL or IELTS. If you decide to take the IELTS, then what kind of scores will you need to be accepted onto an MBA program? To give you a feel for this, we've compiled a list of the required IELTS scores for MBA programs at some of the best universities in Europe. MBA, University of Oxford (Saïd) “IETLS: Minimum Score: 7.5, Minimum required on each component: 7.0” MBA, Imperial College Business School “IELTS (academic): A minimum score of 7.0 with minimum scores of 6.5 in all elements” MBA, Cambridge Judge Business School “IELTS score of at least 7.5” MBA, HEC Paris “Minimum IELTS: 7.0, with a minimum of 6.5 on each part of the test” MBA, London Business School “IELTS score of at least 7” Executive MBA, Stockholm School of Economics “IELTS score of at least 7” The Copenhagen Full-time MBA, Copenhagen Business School “[An] IELTS score of 7 [is] recommended” MBA, INSEAD A recommended IELTS score of at least 7.5. Clearly, these schools require a high degree of English competence to apply for their MBA programs, typically requiring IELTS scores of 7 to 7.5. This is equivalent to a TOEFL score of around about 100.

title: Meet Gökhan: a Phd Student in Economics at Ankara University in Turkey
description: How did you find out about INOMICS? I have been a member of INOMICS community for over three years. I came across the platform when I was looking for a summer school in Europe to prepare myself for my Master’s studies, so I decided to give it a shot. As soon as I found my summer course on INOMICS (which I enjoyed a lot), I started to explore the website more and realized that I can also use it for finding great PhD programs, conferences and professional courses. I think it is the most complete source of information for students or career seekers, especially in the field of economics. Why did you decide to do your PhD? I would like to have a career where I can be fully dedicated to my interests and work on problems that are important to me. I realized that I enjoy the university environment when I started my Master’s at Kirikkale University. Then I decided to do my doctoral research in Ankara. Currently, I am looking for a funding opportunity in Europe. Why do you want to pursue your PhD abroad? My current university, where I am doing my doctoral research, has a great variety of research options. However, I am always seeking to expand my horizons and enhance my personal development. It would be great to have this opportunity of being exposed to a new environment and getting to know different perspectives on the topic. I also think that being mobile and having career experience abroad would be a very important asset for my CV. Are there any countries you are especially interested in for your doctoral career? Yes, I would like to study at one of the German economics faculties. The main reason is the low cost of tuition fees and many funding opportunities. How do you see your future academic career? Which positions are you aiming at and where would you like to work? I am aiming at a professor position either in Germany or any other country in Western Europe. I would like to spend most of my time conducting research with a limited teaching commitment. You mentioned that …

description: “Prior deciding to continue my master studies in Czech Republic I was travelling and visited various places like Prague, Karlovy Vary and Brno. Since really enjoying Czech Republic as tourist I decided to check studying opportunities as well. Apart from eternally being in love with the golden city Prague, I was attracted to Brno – second largest city in Czech Republic thanks to the quality Master programme Business management, which was all I wanted and wished for my Master degree. The courses offered by the programme were totally suitable with my career plans, but studying at the Faculty of Economics and Administration of the Masaryk University (www.econ.muni.cz/en) gave me much more than just perfect courses, and living and studying in Brno exceeded all my expectations. From the first day, I liked the atmosphere at the Faculty. Easygoing professors, quality courses, many students – foreign and domestic in one place, talking and sharing experiences, learning about other cultures and presenting their own culture. The Faculty has a perfect library with up to date books and magazines from business world, which is very important and it clearly shows that the Faculty invests constantly in increasing the knowledge of both staff and students. Also, what surprised me and it is different than studying back home in Serbia, is that if you have good grades, the university supports you and gives you a merit scholarship each semester! The fact that the Faculty is constantly improving and taking care of students makes me happy and proud to study here. What I always like to mention to people outside the university is how cool information system we have! It is very modern, useful and makes all the administrative stuff much easier. Everything is there - from our grades, communication with professors, literature for courses, job search, scholarships and many other interesting things. Now a bit more about why I like the courses at my Faculty so much. First, there are a lot of courses …

5 Best Cities for Conferences

title: 5 Best Cities for Conferences
description: Barcelona, Spain Barcelona is a hugely popular destination for tourists and travellers thanks to its warm weather, tasty food, rich cultural history, and relaxed way of life. These qualities make it a great destination for conference goers too. Accommodation is relatively affordable, and it has the nearby international Barcelona–El Prat Airport which makes travelling there easy. One important tip if you're attending a conference in Barcelona is to make sure that you're drinking plenty of water. The average temperature there is over 20°C, getting up to 30°C at the height of summer. Pack a big hat and plenty of sunscreen and make sure that you're fully hydrated to deal with the heat! Conferences which are coming up soon in Barcelona include: University of Barcelona - Living the Future: International Conference on Technology, Engineering, Education & Computer LF-TEEC EDULEARN17 (9th annual International Conference on Education and New Learning Technologies) 2017 9th International Conference on Information Management and Engineering (ICIME 2017) - Ei Compendex and Scopus Berlin, Germany Berlin is best known for its art and for its party scene, but there's also a significant academic community in the city, with a particular prominence of institutions working in the areas of neuroscience, medicine, linguistics, and the humanities.

5 reasons why your paper got rejected from a conference
type: Article
title: 5 reasons why your paper got rejected from a conference
description: 1. Your project wasn't relevant to the conference theme Generally, a conference will have a theme which is relevant to the main subject of the field. For example, an international development conference might focus on a particular country, region, or research methodology. For the best chances of having your paper accepted to the conference, you need to find a way to link your work to the theme of the conference. Think about how your work could be relevant to the theme – even if it isn't directly related, you might be able to find a way that your results could have an impact on the theme more broadly. 2. Your abstract had too much theory and not enough results While it's true that conferences do often accept theoretical work as well as empirical work, it can be much harder to get a theoretical paper accepted than an empirical one. If your paper has been rejected, it might have been because it focused too much on theoretical aspects. If you have empirical results, even if they are incomplete or preliminary, then you should include this information in your abstract for better chances of being accepted. Alternatively, if you wish to submit a purely theoretical paper, make sure that you choose the conference to which you are submitting carefully. Some conferences are more welcoming of theoretical work than others. 3. Your project is not yet far enough along to present Conferences offer you the chance to present your work and to get feedback on it, even if your project is still underway and you have not yet completed it. For example, perhaps you are planning to perform your experiment with 40 participants, but so far you have only done it with 20 participants. In this case, you might do a quick preliminary data analysis to see whether your results look promising, and then present them at a conference if they do. However, you cannot always present very early work. If you don't yet have results, or if you have only run a very small number of participants, then your work is …
disambiguating description: When you want to present your work at a conference, either as a poster or as a presentation, then you need to first submit an abstract. A committee from the conference will go through all the abstracts and choose some of them to be presented at the conference. So there are times when you will be not be invited to present your work at the conference. But why is this? What leads to your paper being rejected from a conference? Here are five reasons that this might happen.

title: Meet Jana-Aletta: a Postgraduate Student of Medical Faculty in Pilsen at Charles University
description: When I made the decision to leave Germany and take on the challenge of starting my PhD in the Czech Republic, I did not know much about Charles University, Prague or the Czech Republic itself. My language skills were limited to my native language and English, but I was looking forward to the change. Right from my first interview with Dr. Králíčková at the Institute of Histology & Embryology I knew that I would be taken care of. Everyone at the faculty was open, helpful and supportive, and I was offered a language course to enable a smooth transition and communication in the new university. As the first English-speaking PhD student in the medical faculty in Pilsen, I was expecting many challenges regarding classes, lectures and exams, but I was given great support by teachers, staff and my fellow students. My Czech classes started right away, ensuring that I found it easier to communicate every day while running errands. The exams I had to sit were translated into English to allow me to take part. Online tests and lectures were translated as well and the procedures I had to follow were described to me in person. All the staff I had to interact with, for example the people in human resources or student affairs, speak English. The same applies to all my colleagues, creating a relaxed, cosmopolitan working environment. The research facilities provided in the Biomedical Center in Pilsen are of the highest standard and I was impressed with the space, equipment and offices available. After working in German, American and Swedish laboratories, I have some experience, this Biomedical Center is providing the perfect working environment. I was assigned a pleasant office space in a room I share with only two colleagues, giving me a quiet, luxurious setting for study, reading, writing papers and planning experiments. My original reason for joining the medical faculty in Pilsen was for a collaboration with a laboratory in Los Angeles (USA). This collaboration involves study in th…
