style='color:black'>74 Suschevskey Val, THE MBA Tour will be coming to Moscow
for the first time. (Do not confuse this with the massive event that comes to
Moscow every year called the World MBA Tour.) This is a small event in which several
small groups of 8-10 selected students meet in consecutive round-table
discussions with representatives of 6 Western business schools: </span></span></span><span

Cranfield and Duke will be at Pericles to meet individually with persons at the

<p class=MsoNormal><span class=thdr111><span style='font-size:12.0pt;
color:black'>I highly recommend this event for anyone who is planning to take
an MBA abroad after finishing courses at AIBEc. Even if you aren’t
particularly focusing on the schools that are coming to the event, this is a
good chance to really get to understand the admissions process and get inside
information from admissions directors, as well as a chance to evaluate the comparative
features of various B-schools.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span class=thdr111><span style='font-size:12.0pt;

only beginning to expand outside the US, and this is the first time that this
event has been held in Moscow. There is no guarantee that the event will be held
again next year if you miss next Saturday.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
