Relax folks, enjoy the process. B-school apps are a nice way to self-reflect. Also, in case you don’t feel you’re ready- essays not upto the mark, GMAT can be improved, etc. then move to R2. First principle is to get the best application out there- then R1 vs R2 comes in.

Should be gross I believe as annual returns are needed to be attached as proof of income. My guess. Check with ISB and enlighten others :)

Even I'm not done with my GMAT, I was supposed to give it on 21st August but my centre cancelled the appointment 36 hours prior and now I have booked it for 24th August. This time I took no risk with centre and booked it at an official Pearson centre.
btw its my second attempt, I have scored 690 earlier.

Hi,

Will a gap at the time of application be viewed in a negative light, as in if the candidate is not working with any organisation at that time, can anyone advise on this?

Hi, can someone review my profile? - I’m a female engineer (computer science) and an IT professional with 4+ years of workex in cloud, devops and data analytics in a well established company (not so renowned in India). I have been a part of 2 committees in my current company, one of them is to imbibe diversity, equity and inclusion. I did my btech from a decent college with a CGPA of 9.09 and I completed my schooling from a very good school with 92.4 percent marks in 12th and 93 percent marks in 10th. Apart from this I have decent extracurriculars too. I own a YouTube music channel (don’t have many followers though) and I own a small business (which is in very initial phase but is profit making). How much do I need to score in GMAT with this profile to strengthen my chances of getting a call from ISB

GMAT is very relative. ISB’s avg this year is 720. For your profile, I’ll suggest 700+ to have a very good chance of conversion.

Hey All,

Can someone tell me how long does it take to craft the application for ISB? I would need to schedule my GMAT accordingly, planning to apply in R2.

Is there any difference between R1 and R2 in terms of acceptance ratio or chances of conversion?
