Honestly, if you are getting admission for PGDM and you have to choose between the London School of Business and Finance and INSEAD - Singapore, then unquestionably you should go for INSEAD- Singapore. INSEAD- Singapore is globally acknowledged as the hub of business education. The prestige and reputation of INSEAD-Singapore are at par with any other top business school in the world. The only logical reason why you should get into the London School of Business and Finance rather than getting into INSEAD- Singapore, is the difference in the tuition fee of both the colleges. PGDM at the London School of Business and Finance will cost you around INR 12 Lakh, whereas the average first-year tuition fee for PGDM at INSEAD-Singapore is INR 60 Lakh.
