Good list, especially for people looking to transition into France. I feel like Audencia has really grown a lot in the past few years.

The average salary is shown on one of the French grandes ecoles rankings but I can't recall which one. 

I want to know that if a student has fluent French skills but is only able to make it to a tier-2 college and another student who does a course from Essec or HEC who doesn't speak fluent French , then can a student with fluent French skills from a tier 2 college compete with the student of HEC in the job market?

Someone who [graduates from a business school but who] cannot work in French is not really in the job market. They are limited to a small number of rotational programs, for which there is intense competition. I have no exact idea [of] what you mean by tier 2 but I guess you mean schools like Audencia, Kedge and NEOMA, for example, which recruit from the same 'prepa' colleges as the best triple crown grandes ecoles. Indeed, a graduate of those schools who is able to work in French (especially if they have studied the grande ecole masters in French) will be much better placed in the French labour market.

Thank you for the response.

Hi Duncan, I have an admit for MBA program from grenoble and audencia and I plan on working with a consulting firm after completing my MBA. Are the colleges reputed? Both seem similar in terms of ranking so I'm a little confused.

Take a look at https://www.leparisien.fr/etudiant/orientation/ecoles/palmares-des-ecoles-de-commerce-du-parisien-etudiant-le-classement-2021-YZGV6YP6GNK5FJV7CLOY7YY44Q.php 

I don't think the major consulting firms hire Indian alumni from English-language programs at these schools into MBA type roles. If you want to consult in France, either attend Insead or HEC, or study in French.
