Hi

I'm registering to 3 MBA's in Scandinavia, having already acceptance in 2.

My current choice is to be made between BI (Norway), HSE (Finland) and CBS (Copenhagen).

There are several points i consider best for each one of them, but would like to see others opinions, if from someone that faced this particular choice even better

Thanks a lot.

(I assume you are not from Scandinavia yourself): If you are looking for non- MBA related criteria: For having fun, the Helsinki nightlife is supposed to be one of the best in Europe, but then again you have got the climate issue (rather dark in winter). Copenhagen is also known to be a place where you can have alot of fun, maybe not as hip but very lively. Oslo has a repuation for being rather dull (and you also have the climate issue). So much for non-academic criteria ;-)

That i know :)

My point was really MBA reputation, since there are several distinct differences...

Hi
I am norwegian so I guess I will answer.
I know that both BI and CBS have a good reputation when it comes to MBA`s.
For BI in Norway I can tell that it is a good degree, they are working close to business all the time and are a private school. We do also have NHH who is competing with this school (www.nhh.no), and should also be considered. They have a very good network for the students after they have finished their degree. And they get accepted to any job here.
When it comes to your decision, the CBS have a bright focus on international business.
Norway is of course very expensive living, that goes especially if you like to party.. In main you can say, what is not good for you, are expensive ;-) Alcohol, cigarettes..

And there is a smoking ban in public places, clubs, bars, etc. right? Wish we finally had that here in Germany too..
