Hi

To build my profile I am planning to do some certification. I just wanted to know do the area of certification needs to be aligned with my current work profile or with future MBA plan

It should be aligned with your goals. Don’t just think from an admissions perspective, think eventual placements. The recruiters should also feel that you’ve made continuous attempts to get closer to the goals

Hi, is ISB forms out?

Is social service certificates like NGO is important?

ISB looks for factors beyond your current work profile. Whether it’s community work or any other initiative, doesn’t matter. What matters more is the impact you’ve created through that. One shouldn’t fall for getting volunteering certificates or doing community work for the heck of it. The alums and adcom can see through that if it’s not genuine.

MananS4G, any idea how much time isb’s admission support team take to reply to a mail? I sent them a mail regarding evaluation link not being recived by my evaluator. Hasn’t been long since I sent the mail (1day). Just curious.

The ISB online application form mandates the CAs to fill in details of their articleship including responsibilities etc - so not sure if this is entirely right. Can someone confirm?

^that’s correct. You should fill it.

Posted from my mobile device

hey guys, is their a way by which i can connect with isb alum. from a family business backgrounf

Hey, DM me. Will put you in touch with a fellow alum from the same background.

Hello! Thanks for sharing your profile and your efforts in the healthcare space. Your profile is diverse and every year there are a few doctors which make it to ISB. Most of them are on the other side of 30 and the school understands that. Hence, there should be no issue wrt age. I had a ~40-year-old doctor in my class and last year, there was someone who was 50. One of the criteria which adcom looks at is the practicality of your goals and whether they’re achievable. In fact, an alum from class of 2012, Karamveer Gambhir did something similar with Karma Primary Healthcare. Other option for you could be as a GM for a chain of hospitals. Couple of fellow alums are heading Apollo in Ahmedabad and Columbia Asia in Bangalore. Can put you in touch with them if you want as you work on the profile. Let me know in case of further questions. All the best!
