I received an online invite for interview for 6th Jan, Panel No. 2
Anyone from R1 who has an idea about the panel? Also what could be the best source to prepare for this interview considering that I received it just 3 days before?

Just curious whether the interviews for YLP, EEO and normal entry candidates all happen together for all applicants in the same round or are they conducted separately? Thanks in advance

Did you prefer for an online slot itself, or were you assigned an online slot irrespective of your offline preference?

does offline vs online interview have any bearing on the final result? Have the various Mentoring groups noticed any differences in terms of the final outcome?

Hi- is there any information around what was asked in ISB Round 1 interviews this year? I am assuming questions are generally- tell me something about yourself; goals; why MBA; why ISB; if not then what etc?

Not at all. Offline is better from a body language perspective. But that’s your own comfort

What can one do to make the same or better impact online as compared to offline? IMO, it’s difficult to keep the interaction alive and maintain a constant connection with panelists throughout the interview; what can be done in that case?

Hi all, my gmat exam was scheduled on 1st Jan, but due to technical error from Pearson side the test centre was not able to get the admit details of candidate (me) , so a person at the test centre has to cancel the exam and told me that he has registered a case no and u have to connect to Pearson customer centre for rescheduling the exam. I have tried to reach, but not getting any positive response .

Do u guys have any mail id where I can lodge my complaint directly and get the things done quickly??

I had mailed here when in a similar situation: GMATTechSupport@pearson.com

I am assuming you have the Case ID? Then include that in the mail
