hi,

im an international applicant(Nepali) currently working as a software developer in Canada at Amazon. I studied in Germany worked for 4 years there and then moved to Canada. My GMAT score is 700. Would appreciate if could get feedback on my chances at ISB.

thanks
shaan

Shaan, basis the informaiton you have given you have good chances at ISB. However more details about you will be useful in a better assessment.

Regards,
Ankur

My essay 4 reads "Please use this space to explain significant improvements in your profile since your last application to the ISB PGP.
Note: It is mandatory for you to write this essay."

What does yours say?

Hi Ankur ankurgupta03,

Mine said the same thing that yours said. Abhimirage has created a new profile. And I guess that's why he's seeing a different question 4.

Initially the portal showed both questions for question 4(additional info for new applicants and reapplicant essay for people like us).

However, there are more bugs in the portal, like sections showing s incomplete even after you complete them. I've submitted my app last night. The final pdf application was showing that I've applied for EEO (with 7 years experience!). I've already sent mail to ISB and even received a call saying that they've corrected the bug (still not corrected, which again was acknowledged on the phone). Let's see how it plays out.

Sigh, lets see if this time this one sided love affair becomes mutual. Fingers crossed!!!

Do update whether the submission goes smoothly at your end.

gmatbugsme84 by creating new profile I mean that when you click on create new profile it shows you various options wherein you can select the desired option, in my case reapplicant ie whether you have applied for PGP earlier. It even asked me my previous app ref id. I hope that does it?

Any comments?

That shoud've done it.

In case you have not submitted, I suggest that you call them and tell them that your essay 4 is the one for fresh applicants. Because as Ankur pointed out earlier, the question for reapplicants is (1) different (2) on change in profile, (3) compulsory.

Hi Ankur, My Essay 4 says
Please use this space to provide any other information not covered elsewhere in the application that could significantly impact your candidature at ISB. Also it is labeled as optional.
I think creating new profile has messed it all up!

I've pursued internship during my undergrad. So in the employment info, I've added the Intership information and selected the radio button "Internship during UG/Grad". However when I try to submit my application, I'm getting the following error:

Experience Information (Employment To Date with Cisco Systems, Inc. is in conflict with UnderGraduate Programme Dates, Employment From Date with Cisco Systems, Inc. is in conflict with UnderGraduate Programme Dates)

Anyone facing this error? I've sent them a mail but no response yet

Hi srinivas45,

I too had two internships during my undergrad and faced the same issue. I ended up removing them from the employment section and addressing them in the essays. You too can try and address them in one of the essays.

I reused mine, so no.

Hopefully, a call will sort it all out.

Hey, I had written to the adcom regarding the same. Just enter the internships as Part Time.

Hi,

If my recommender submits his recommendation tomorrow, will my application be considered for the 1st round or the second?
