hi everyone, can any of you tell me where we are supposed to fill out the section for interview location, first heard about ISB, etc? I couldn’t see it in any of the sections but it shows up in the "preview application" section

Hi, you have an extra ordinary profile. You will definitely get into ISB, hands down. Only concern will be the justification of MBA. What exactly you want to achieve out of this exercise?

You have a good chance to work with JESUS after doing MBA.
Just kidding, nothing but resect.
I can say that it’s most likely that ISB will accept you.
Good Luck! :)

apply wherever you want. Profile is diverse enough. Justify the slightly low GPA in optional essays (ISB doesn’t have). Important enough to focus on the goals post MBA. The gaps in the larger scheme of things don’t matter much. You can apply for a number of scholarships as well. All the best.

Recommender has written a really short LOR, barely 100 words per prompt. She’s mentioned some good points but not elaborated much. I’m writing some recommendations on improving it, hopefully will be complete in time.

How much would this reflect on me as a candidate?

Thankyou! A few things tho, how’d you compare a recommendation from someone from the public sector domain.. say a Counsellor Director at Ministry of External Affairs, to the common profit making firm’s heads (VCs, Product, Finance etc) ? Also, how do you think the unversities view transitioning from public sector to business side. Advantage or disadvantage?

Reduction in impact and power of bureaucracy going ahead is the primary reason. Monotony amongst some other few. How will it be justified? Yet to be figured.

Most schools outside India require two recommendations. So use both! For ISB, I’d the one where you’ve worked with them more closely. Stature-wise both are almost equal while the former offers more diversity. Universities are open to transitions toward pvt sector, a number people have done that. Important to figure out- why you want to move out and where you want to head.

Makes sense. Thankyou buddy. Cheers!

And yes, i realise post mba goals, trajectory especially at 31 is what needs attention. Let me know of any sources to get my mind running in the reight direction, if possible? Thans once again.
