Hi all,
I have an admit from another great college in Singapore that I am also equally keen on, however I want to consider ISB strongly as it has some pros that outweigh cons of ISB and the pros of the Singapore admit. I have to respond to the Singapore school in a week's time at most. I interviewed for ISB on 9th Jan in R2 and am awaiting results. Do we know when to expect them? They said end of Feb on website, but that is so vague. I think ISB is the slowest with results.
Or, does someone have a contact that we can use to message and ask for details? I think some people had done this for R1; texted some contact for date of R1 decision rollout.
How to understand my chances of getting selected by ISB?

NTU. But I am also waitlisted at NUS and hoping to convert, but it seems like I am tight on time.

I have a question. I interviewed in R2 on 11 Jan in Mumbai. My interviewers were very friendly and mentioned liking my essay. But since I am from a different background of design, their questions revolved more about what I think good design was. How I approached my work. What would be the impact of AI on my work. They never even touched why I wanted to do an MBA. And just had one question regarding what I will do at ISB. Did not even ask me Why ISB.
I was mostly able to answer all questions except one, about the impact of AI on ecommerce platforms. I clarified that i was well aware of impact of AI on the design industry but not on the whole of e commerce. But i still did answer somewhat, but they weren’t there most satisfied with this answer. But this was the only hiccup.
Now i am very confused, since everyone’s experiences revolved around Why MBA & Why ISB.

Anyone has any insight?
For reference both my interviewers were very chill guys who seemed like they worked in some creative adjacent fields as well.
