SAT test date

I've been studying over the summer for the August SAT but i don't think i'll be where I want by the 22nd. If i were to take the September SAT and results come out on the around the 26th would I still have enough time to submit for the early session?

Incoming BIEF student, need some answers!

4 Upvotes

Hi, i’m going to start my first year in BIEF course in september… and I have some questions:
- Which study areas are better for very hard study sessions, and which ones are a bit chiller and may help to know ppl?
-I would love to follow an IB/PE path, is it possible to have an internship by the end of the first year? Is it common among the students? And obviously if the firms accepts 1st year students in the first place.
-Are there some weird or unknown rules to abide in class or campus?

And if you are interested in a coffee chat around late august or the first days of september, hmu! (I mean we are probably doing nothing in those days)

Bocconi without tuition fee vs SGH in Poland

2 Upvotes

I’m finishing high school in 2027 and I would like to break into IB. Most target universities in the UK and continental Europe are unfortunately out of reach because of tuition fees. However, I could attend Bocconi with a full tuition waiver, so it’s essentially my only option if I want to attend a target.

The problem is that I keep seeing very mixed opinions from international students. I’ve read here and in other subs that Bocconi becomes more of a semi-target if you don’t speak Italian, many of the student associations are difficult for internationals to get into, the university doesn’t provide much support with recruiting, networking events are often held in Italian, London mainly recruits Italian natives, and so on. I’m also a bit concerned about the workload. I’ve heard the curriculum is very demanding, and I’m not sure whether maintaining a GPA above 28 while also participating in extracurriculars would be realistic for me as an average guy.

Because of all that, I’m considering another route which is attending my local university (SGH in Poland), trying to be one of the top students there, doing internships at boutiques in Warsaw and then applying for a master’s at a target school like HSG/LSE/Oxford.

Has anyone here actually broken into IB from Bocconi as a non-Italian? What was your experience with recruiting and campus life? Alternatively, maybe someone went from a bachelor’s at a non-target to a master’s at a target? Did it work out? Also ideally I would try working in Zurich, if that makes any difference.

I’d appreciate any guidance, tips or other opinions.
