Congratulations! Three great choices. I don't think you can do go wrong with any of them. Cranfield is better for placement, and students are more senior, both on the way in and on the way out. I also think their four-term structure is better. If you don't need placement, then Lyon is great for entrepreneurship, especially for luxury or life science.

So does this mean Emlyon's placement is not that good ??

Im from India with 10 years of experience in IT, including 5 years as a Co-Founder of an IT company and i am applying to FT MBA at Emlyon, Essec, EBS, ESMT and TIAS - may i know which of these is best when it comes to placement post MBA for an indian woman of IT sector?

It was 83% placement the last time it was in the FT MBA ranking (http://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/em-lyon/global-mba-ranking-2014#global-mba-ranking-2014), and I don't think that's great.

Take a look at Best schools for international students' placement http://www.find-mba.com/board/41143
I also wonder if you might find it useful to read International students and working in the UK http://bit.ly/1RGJIoH

The 2016 European Business School ranking had a column you can add in to show MBA salary increase: EMLyon's full-time MBA is in the bottom tenth, with an increase roughly half the average.

Do you speak French?

That might be another factor to consider if you're looking to EMLyon to transition to starting a business in France.
