Hello everyone,
I am in my final year of STI and since everything is going well, I applied to INSA Lyon.
This morning I received my invitation for an interview.
I would like some information regarding this interview, how it goes, etc.
I would also like to know if being invited means I have a good chance of being accepted?
Thank you for your responses ;)

    Hi, I'm exactly in the same situation. I received my summons last Thursday and I'm asking myself the same questions.

    Also, if someone could tell me what we can do after the second year of prep (even though I know it's still a long way off), that would be great, thanks.

    It should be a motivation interview, to know the reasons why you are applying.

    For your admission songs, it depends on your average/ranking and the grade you get on the baccalaureate (you will need at least a 'Good', I have seen final year students with 'Good' or even 'Very Good' grades being refused for INSA..).

    What is your current average (Final Year and Upper Sixth)?

    Hi, I'd like to know (without being intrusive) what your grades were in first year and in the first trimester of senior year so that I can compare them with mine, as I haven't received the email for the interview, and I was surprised given my grades and my ranking in the class.
    Thank you.

    For the interview, do you know of specific questions we might not expect?

    And after this integrated preparation, what can we do afterwards? (Please, it's important)

    For admissions, it seems to me that what's most important in your file is your position in the class (difference from the maximum and minimum average of the class).

    after the prep, you stay in school for another 3 years without taking any exams :)
    I'm first in my class and the class average is pretty pitiful, like 8 in mechanics or 6 in math :/
