Good luck to all the R2 candidates ! FYI, I know someone who interviewed with a low GMAT score . So if you have good experience with a good profile, you can still make it.

I wanted to know one thing. When do we get to know our ding feedback from ISB ? I'm an R1 ding.

Go through the isb preparation kit it contains all the links.
Dress up in a suit. That is the best. I think the kit has a link about this also

FROM ISB Admissions Blog: Know more about the Learning Weekends at YLP

Charting out the right career path is a daunting task for any young dreamer. Harbouring a general idea of the career one wants to pursue is one thing, but knowing how best to create a successful career needs expert assistance from the industry.

Engineered to accelerate career growth, YLP helps hone future business leaders through structured learning curriculum, mentoring and networking. The programme specifically focuses on undergraduates, training them and providing them the opportunity to be part of one of the country’s most privileged programmes for aspiring managers. One aspect that sets this leadership programme apart from the others is intensive Learning Weekends. The four sessions of Learning Weekends, conducted once in six months, form the essence of the programme, providing students an insight to what a B-school education requires. Students develop the right thought processes to enhance corporate problem solving abilities in these classes. Their awareness of career options and opportunities is improved upon to ensure that they make better decisions.

With Learning Weekends, YLP ensures that aspiring leaders enjoy better clarity and sense of direction with respect to their careers.

Hey guys done with the interview.
Interview location : ITC Grand Central, Mumbai.
Panel No. 1.
26th January.
Interviewing just a day after your birthday sucks

One word essay topic- Surrealism. Do a google search of the word to find out what we would have felt at that time. Everyone managed to write something though

Panel members:- One lady (adcom member) and one gentleman( ISB Alum).
The interview was very conversational and relaxed.
Lots of questions on work experience and leadership examples.
Many questions asked about my NGO work.
One question on post MBA goal.
Asked them 2 questions over which we talked for about 10 minutes.
That's it!
Interview lasted for a good 40-45 minutes though. Almost no cross questioning.

One pointer for the guys who are yet to interview - While narrating your stories, do not forget to put forward your learnings/lessons/results. They are interested in knowing what you learnt from the experiences you had in life more than anything else.

Walked out of the interview content after warm handshakes.
Still don't know what to make of it.
Valentines day couldn't come sooner!

Quick question on the top of my mind, what is the percentage of students that are invited to interview and the percentage of interviewed students that receive an offer?

Thanks !
