Hi Guys

I have given GMAT and scored a 620 (Q47 V28 IR6).

Since I have crossed the minimum required score for ISB (The only school i plan to apply), I want to give a shot to R1 rounds. I needed your feedback on the following:

1) If this would be right thing to do. Would this score be even considered even though the website says that minimum required is 600
2) What are the chances with such a score to get through
3) Any other good schools to look for with this score
4) How should the ISB application be, as in what is it that they look for in a competing application if score is not up to the mark
5) Any assistance on application from anyone who is applying to ISB this year/anyone who would want to share his/her experience and feedback, would be happy to receive

Thanks
Angel

Hi there!

Thanks for getting in touch with us!

The answers to your questions are given below:

A) GMAT is not the only one thing that matters on your profile. Your admissions is dependent on other things like your work experience, essays etc. If the other parts of your application is strong, then you should definitely try. One way to judge is to compare your own profile to that of your peers.

B) A score of 620 is well below the ISB average so getting through to ISB only on the basis of your GMAT will be difficult. However as mentioned above if your profile is good you may have a chance.

C) You can look at SP Jain, Great Lakes, HKUST, University College Dublin, IESE

D) Work experience, quality of essays, motivation to study at ISB, recommendations, personal experiences, interview.

E) Please do write to jamboreeindia@jamboreeindia.com
