The Quote Marks - “
Have been accepted as - #

On my application file.
Eg. #Quote#

Do I need to worry about this?
Hello divynshpGMAT,

You may send an email to ISB bringing this to their notice.

Rest, do not fret about it too much now.

All the best!

Hi everyone! For people that did not take the help of admissions consultants for your applications and are now in ISB, ISB alum or selected in R1 this year - how did you go about writing and reviewing your essays and applications? I am trying to reach out to ISB alums but have not been THAT successful. Would appreciate the help!

Hello lionhearted123,

If you are looking for some direction on the essays front, the following video may be helpful.


All the best!

Okay, since you guys would be getting a lot of document verification/clarification requests from ISB, please bear in mind that the school won’t reject your application for such small issues. Just make sure to respond asap so that they can process it for verification and then review (for interview calls).

For R1, there were roughly 1500 applications. For R2, it is expected to be 15-20% higher than R1 volume. Note that these are directional numbers for broad reference

R1 ends on 15th Dec so R2 would technically begin from 16th Dec

I am trying to reach out to ISB alums but have not been THAT successful. Would appreciate the help!
Hey @lionhearted123 , we got some experience pointers shared by one of our applicant who got an admission offer from ISB recently.

1. ISB was my second school in my application process - so i was already clear on my stories and key highlights I want to hit- so be sure your ingredients for essays are in place.
2. ⁠i personally don’t like taking feedbacks from multiple sources as these are very subjective and can confuse you, especially when you don’t have luxury of time. So I iterated multiple times with my consultant and got one opinion from another mba and beyond consultant. This approach worked for me but I personally also did research on my own through forums, webinars, website etc etc
3. ⁠try to figure out what the school stands for through webinars and info-sessions+ their expectations from those questions. Also read each word of the essay question as ISB essay questions club a couple of themes- so try to hit the right notes with the questions asked
4. ⁠i had an option to reach out to my undergrad seniors/batchamates (but I didn’t)- so instead of randomly cold dming people- find an ‘in’ with an ISB alum e.g. same undergrad college and reach out!

I hope this helps! Good luck.

Hi all,
I’m trying to get a recommendation from my company (Accenture) however, despite several discussions with hr, I’m unable to convince them. As per the HR, filling out a recommendation though email is against company policy and the most they can do it provide me a pre written credence letter.
Please suggest what can I do in this situation. Anyone who has faced this? What did the admissions team suggest
