The best thing about HEC is the people you meet there! Most people are very smart and interesting. I made really good friends and good contacts for the future!
As for the studies, it requires a little bit of work but on average classes are easy to pass - especially if you come from a management/economics background.
The big problem is that the campus is far away from Paris - by car it\'s 25min but if you take public transportation it can take up to 1h30.. I heard now they have some buses going to Paris on the weekends but I\'m not sure.
Parties: it\'s a big thing on campus! Every Thursday there is what they call the POW - Party OF the Week - where everyone goes crazy!! Apart from that you have small parties in rooms very oftem. If you want to party in Paris, either you have a place to sleep there, a car, or you need a lot of extra motivation!!
The \"International Spirit\" is amazing! There are around 200 new international students in September and you have one crazy integration week! It\'s def. an experience!! On the other hand there\'s no much mix between French people and international students, especially if you don\'t speak French..
Overall, I think it\'s an amazing experience!!
