Calling all ISB PGP Applicants - (2023 Intake) Class of 2024

Okay alright. Understood

Is it exactly like the webinars they conduct?

more or less, you can maybe have a more detailed conversation with the alums and adcom after the sessions, which you can’t do in webinars

Understood, thanks a lot

I disagree a bit. I feel that in the online webinars, you don’t get a chance to interact with them properly. Whereas, in these meets, I saw that people were meeting the AdCom person and alumni even after the PPT and Q&A and interacting with them on a personal level. I agree that you won’t get a detailed evaluation of your profile; however, you will get some expert advice from an alumni. Just my 2 cents: it’s worth going.

Thank you. I did go for it and for sure it was insightful.

How much score is preferable for YLP?

You can email its AdCom team at pgp@isb.edu

Should I apply in R1 or work on improving my GMAT Score

What is the criteria for evaluating work experience of merchant navy professionals. Since the sea time is only 50% and we are paid only for the seatiem service. I’ve joined the company anglo eastern ship management in 2016 and have been there for 6 years but my sea time sailing months is around 30 months. What should i write my work experience for isb?

Depends. Like your profile is pretty strong so a lower gmat score shall be fine but 660 is still slightly on the lower side. I have seen people with great profiles get with 650-660 score. It is a gamble and depends if you are willing to take that gamble or not.

Will my essays be looked in isolation or as a whole?

I am outlining my professional life more in the second essay than in the first. Will the same person go through both of them or will they be read individually?

Your essays is just one aspect of your profile, albeit an important one. You will be given a weighted average score, which will heavily be defined by (and not limited to) GMAT Score, Academics (UG College, GPA etc.), Work Experience (quantum, company, role etc.), Letter of recommendation (LOR form),Essays, Extra-curricular activities, and Awards & Achievements.

Dear "kanishaksharma",

Assume the best case scenario that you will be working till the "Till Month" and mention that as Work Experience. It doesn't matter whether you changed jobs in between.

Reach out to us in case you want to have a detailed discussion regarding your application.

Best of Luck
