I was also facing issues with credit cards when sending my GMAT score. Was getting messages from the bank that that the vendor is non compliant with the latest regulations. Had to request a relative abroad to make the payment.

How long should the answers to the ISB LOR questions need to be? How necessary is it to utilize the complete 500 word limit?

Hi nikhilkaps, The LORs are supposed to be written by recommender. No manager in the world that we are aware of will write 500 word essays on their own for someone else.

LORs can be of few lines as well, many applicants have qualified with just 4-5 lines recommendations. LOR can have grammatical mistakes as well, as you will not be judged on "how" its written. Just that recommender shouldn’t ideally write anything negative about you. Beyond that, nothing matters.

only the consultant-curated LOR's write odes to the applicant
Most good consultants would know that LOR writing style should be entirely different from that of essays. LOR’s are not to praise but to substantiate the achievements based on evidences and share the constructive feedback that points towards candidate’s requirement for MBA

I accidentally entered the wrong salary and to date for my current role and hit save. Now I am not able to edit these details as it shows these have been verified by ISB, even though i just entered the details last week. I raised a request but it was not of much help.

Can anyone please let me know whom I should contact regarding this or what I can do here?
