I was Waitlisted in Round 1 in Quartile 1. Just Received A mail from ISB sharing updated consoliadted Quartile Positions for Waitlisted Candidates from all the three Rounds. My current Quartile has been updated to Quartile-2. All the best to those who got admits.
I don’t understand what’s happening with ISB. People From R2 Q2 have received admits and you haven’t received from R1 Q1. That’s strange.

It is just that ROUND 2 pool was more competitive than Round 1. In short ISB got better applications in Round 2 than In Round 1. This was also signalled by Round 1 Q3 and Q4 waitlisted candidates getting rejected after Round 2.

No offence to R3 candidated but ISB did not get the expected pool of candidates in R3 so a few of R2 waitlisted candiated got admits.

The mail says by 30th March.

ISB’s Last year batch size was 845 against 900. So as far as anyone ( in the waitlist) who is ready to join ISB in a hurry by leaving their current jobs stands a chance till 30th March, I guess.

There’s no quartile mentioned for r3 waitlisted applicants.
Any idea how will this pool be considered?

I believe they would sharing updates every 5 days. Based on the admits being accepted after they roll them out. The first round of admits must be rolled out today.

Honestly, I believe ISB was not prepared for the high number of applicants in Rounds 2 and 3. It seems like ISB chose some below-average profiles in Round 1, based on what I’ve noticed in the ISB WhatsApp admissions group. As a result, exceptional profiles in Rounds 2 and 3 are being rejected citing their diversity rule. Lol 😆

They’re excessively profit Driven machines. ISB risks damaging its brand if they fail to alter their approach to candidate selection.

True. . I observed numerous R3 outstanding profiles being not invited at all for interview. These exceptional profiles had received prestigious accolades such as presidential medals, multiple awards, and had founded successful startups. On the other hand, the profiles shortlisted in Round 1 are of a very substandard quality, which is unjust.

Frankly, i regret spending my money on this. With profiles like these, one can easily gain admission to top-ranked B schools in the world, surpassing the reputation of ISB. Moreover, is ISB truly deserving of this level of competition when compared to other prestigious B schools in the US and Europe?
