If your GMAT score is in the mid-80% range (680-760), I don't think there is much difference. Rather, essays will be much much more important. I know quite a lot of people from my university who have been shortlisted for Stage-2.

Nervous moments... 5 days till notification

I think it'll be better to bring the originals for verification, even if it's not specifically mentioned. Acc. to different sources, the no. of interview calls is probably between 220 & 308. No. of seats is probably 10% of their class size (770), as was mentioned in our campus presentation.

nope, that's the case for most global b-schools. but, ISB has a ratio of 1:5 in interview stage.
