Calling all ISB PGP Applicants - (2022 Intake) Class of 2023

How many total admits are rolled out in R1 ? any trend?

I can see 70+ in tracker, so estimating to be ~100

Should be around 250 I think. Assuming 1/3rd in each round and total batch size being 750

But ylp and EEO and deffered are also there

so i’m assuming an intake of 900, 150 would be EEO and YLP numbers and rest PGP. Split that into 3 rounds and you get 250

the actual intake maybe lower / higher

usually has been >900

Actual intake is 880

ahh yes, you’re right

870, 890s, low 900s.. but roughly around 900 give or take a few

I am assuming now, only the new interview invitees have the chance of receiving an admit. 150+ admits have already gone out, so very less chance for someone whose interview took place in October. Gmatclub's Decision tracker represents very low number of actual admits/applications (1/3rd of actual number)

I spent all my night thinking about what would have went wrong. Even though if it was random, why were we not in the first list? Is it actually random? Or did we flunk somewhere. This is my second try at ISB. Hope we all have some clarity soon.

Guys, we can do one thing. Let's create a group of people who have been through interview before yesterday and are yet to hear from ISB. What say?

My two cents.

Let's say the application is graded out of 100 and the cutoff is between 80 and 85. Everybody with a 90+ score would have automatically received admits, which presumably is the first list. Anybody in the 80s still need to be compared with the remaining interviewees and hence the 2nd batch. The score will be floating until the last batch of admits in the first round. I do not think it's a hard figure yet, at least not for the first round. The college wants to fill 900 seats. The second list will be determined from the remaining interviewees this weekend and the next weekend and those already interviewed.

In addition, usually first round has the largest batch of admits and assuming 750 PGP, it would be 350 or so for the first round, 300 for the 2nd round and 100 for the 3rd round. The 3rd round always has minimal admits all across the globe with a minor difference between the first and the second rounds. Having said that, about 200 admits were rolled out yesterday and the remaining 100-150 will be rolled out in the coming batch.
Do not discount yourself out yet because 100 to 150 admits will be not interviewed over the coming 2 weekends. Go for a run, get a beer or a smoke, read, watch movies or if your work is exhausting (you would be lucky if that was the case at this juncture) dive into it.
Sit tight for the next couple of weeks!

We can do this. It will help knowing that a lot of people are in the same boat and we will get timely updates as well

Dinesh my man. I know we are strangers but this really made me hug you. Thanks for penning this. I am not judging the authenticity of these analysis, but sometimes we just need some motivation and this write-up actually motivated me.

Let me take this initiative. Please start pinging me at 9078783809 and I will make a group.

UtkarshBSingh, your profile difference between last year and this time ?

I’m in

done

I have been told in my feedback that no change was required in my profile. I only have to work on my interview and goal clarity.

Hi everyone, got the admit yesterday.
This is my first admit this round so there is a sense of relief.
Kudos to everyone who made it and all the best to everyone waiting.
