16. Oh the one word essay was on ‘Fallacy’. (I taught GMAT verbal for some time, so this was an easy one for me)
Regarding the one word essay, What if I don't know the meaning of that word. Can I still browse the internet or is it the end of the game right there? :?:

I wouldn't worry about that! While they may not like you browsing heavily, I don't think they would mind if you were to search for something on your mobile. No one really keeps an eye. It's all about how you can gather your thoughts quickly and articulate.
Browse away, brother!

Starting to see that people who've selected the HYD campus as the interview location have started being called up. Starting to get a bit anxious.

If you've received your ISB interview invite, congrats and all the very best! :)

Are you wondering how to maximize your preparation over the next few days?

How about a chance to undergo an accurate simulation of the ISB interview before you attend the actual interview?

Experience the ISB Interview Rehearsal here - https://bit.ly/20yotcf

And no, this is not just another mock-interview!

1. You will be interviewed by a 3-member interview panel, comprising interview experts and an ISB alumnus who has served on the interview panel of ISB for many years!

2. You will experience a face-to-face interview that will be a very close approximation of your actual ISB interview. You will come dressed in your interview clothes and work on a one-word essay, just as you would on D-Day. What is more – you will receive a video recording of your entire interview, so that you can observe your body language and work on your areas on improvement.

3.You will be evaluated on the same parameters that ISB considers important and receive ISB-specific, actionable feedback from experts who know what it takes to get into ISB.

Sign up here - https://bit.ly/20yotcf , or call us at 9008177800 if you’d like to understand more about how we can help you.

Hi Sparta_750,

What is this One word Essay?

Share your thoughts.

What I have gathered from various sources:

It is an innocuous exercise. A word would be given and one is expected to write about 50-100 words. The words given are usually simple ( such as reward, incentive, etc). Just write freely. Ample time is provided for writing purposes and the work is usually glanced over by the interviewers to confirm that you can write in English. Nothing to lose sleep over.
