Thanks Ankur

I just got the following from a mail from ISB.

"Please note that the evaluation form has to be submitted by your evaluator/s, as early as possible, for your application to be considered. While it is always good to have it submitted by Nov 30, for Round-2, we will consider receiving the completed evaluation till Dec 10, 2014."

I'm considering working on the recommendations after Nov 30 and spend the additional time on essays. I hope there is no bias towards people whose recommendations are submitted after Nov 30. Please suggest.

I don't think they should have any sort of bias when they themselves have postponed the date.
Moreover, they extend the deadlines for the LORs every year.

I think ISB has extended the deadline for receiving LORs.
You should call them/drop them a mail stating they same and they will help you out.

Hey. I had the chance to speak to a couple of seniors from ISB. do you think I should include their names in the why ISB question to show I have researched about the school?

Thanks for the help

In my opinion (I haven't got an invite for interview so far so you can take my advice with a pinch of salt) that should be fine. But I'd Still say introspect a little more and think of the most pivotal reason to choose ISB. However there are experts here and you could wait for their advice but I reckon you're already just a day or two short of the deadline. Send your essays out for reviews already. And submit it today or early tomorrow morning.

You can add a few words here and there ... something like "after talking to the Alums, Current students and going through the school website etc, I have found ... blah blah"
But ya, I think it is high time that you finalize your essays and proceed towards submitting them.

All the best!
