- Mexican Bachillerato
University Direction
Recommended University Strategy
After looking at Andrei's academics and what he wants to study, we built a shortlist that matches his profile and keeps IE University as the goal.
The schools below are similar to IE in style and quality: strong business programmes in Europe, taught in English, with an international student body.
They were also chosen because, apart from IE and ESADE's own entrance exams, there are no extra standardised tests to prepare for. The IE and ESADE entrance exams are also very similar, so the same preparation covers both.
We looked for universities with:
- Solid Business and Management degrees
- Teaching in English, with an international student body
- A workload that pushes him without burning him out
- Things worth doing outside lectures
- A mix of entry difficulty, so he isn't relying on one result

Application Roadmap
How we get Andrei's applications built, step by step
- 1Phase 1

- 2Phase 2
First applications: IE and ESADE

- Tailor the CV and any written materials to each school
- Final read through before anything is submitted
