Hi, if anyone needs a ’friend and guide’, you can contact my guide Shahrukh Moin Khan over LinkedIn or dm me for further details. An IIM C 2-year MBA passout of 2017, he has 6+ years experience of guiding students. Best for Interviews and SOPs I believe! Waited for my R1 convert before I actually posted this...........

Hi everyone, one quick question

Should the SOP be strictly less than 600 words or can it extend a little beyond also?

The application form says around 600 words so I am not completely sure about the word limit

Thank you

In one of the info sessions, they said it is strictly 600 words.

I wouldn’t suggest going beyond the word limit.

What is the difference in chances in applying R2 vs R3?
The intake is almost evenly spread across different rounds. So, apply when you feel comfortable and ready. Most significant differentiator for R3 could be how the batch profile would’ve shaped up in R1 & R2, with regards to the cohort mix (gender, backgrounds, work-ex, etc) vis-a-vis the mix the school would prefer. That could slightly favour certain sections over the other in R3 - just as it would have in R1 & R2 earlier.

All that said, there is not much value in making a hasty application in R2 if you feel you could have a stronger application in R3 (maybe better GMAT or another certificate, or just better essay/LOR, etc).

Hi all, I have a question:
The R2 interviews for IIMB are scheduled for 4th & 5th November. However, I am supposed to travel to the USA on these dates for business purpose, and I’ll probably be in flights or at an airport. Is it advisable to mail the institute regarding this? Will they make any possible adjustments for such a situation? I would prefer to apply in R2 as I don’t want to push it to R3 wherein there are fewer chances of getting selected (As per the common conception).
