Yesterday around 5
Got the same mail. We should just edit the application and resubmit it, right? Also this will not mean the application will be considered for R2, instead if R1, right?

I raised a service request to clarify on thursday eve (when I got the email), but I haven't heard back yet. If I don't I will submit a screenshot including the top half of the GMAC page that fits in 1 screen (everything above the "other school %iles") and hope that works.

By when the results of the first round are expected to be out?Also, by any chance do we get to know some info about the cut-off score for GRE and GMAT?
As per last year records

It’s expected to receive the interview calls in month of October.

Last year the interview invites were sent on rolling basis...

You get only a week to prepare for interview.

Expect to receive interviews invites around 03rd Oct and Interview dates around 10th October (for delhi)

Please evaluate my profile, and suggest what GMAT score would be good for an ISB admit.

10th standard- 9.2 CGPA
12th Standard- 90%
UG- 71.4 % from VTU (Mechanical Engineering)
1 year, co founder of a video production startup up.
3 years piping construction trainee Mech engineer in Kuwait.
3 years Site mechanical engineer in Facility Management in Kuwait.
0.5 years in HVAC construction site engineer in Saudi Arabia. (Will be 1.5 by the time I apply next year). Planning on taking the GMAT in 6 months and then focus completely on essays etc. What should I be aiming for ? And what resources do I need?

yeah hopefully they accept this - i gave them 2 pages - one with the full webpage screenshotted, another with the relevant sections zoomed in. Will feel really silly if the app is delayed because of this even with after the official scores have been received.
WA@wpy2489

Same here, I raised a query. No reply yet. I just created a pdf merging 2 screenshots. One with test details and other with score.

Hi Shiladitya123, Good profile, different from a lot of applicants. International experience is highly valued in Indian MBA colleges and you have good 6+ years of international experience in core engineering. And being a co founder is icing on the cake. Get anything above 655 and you will be mostly ok from profile and score perspective. Rest depends how you handle the interviews. For GMAT, you can use official GMAT guides, they are decently sufficient. Best Wishes.

Are the interview for applicants who chose virtual option conducted at the end after offline interviews or in parallel every week?

You have asked for one aim but let me offer you two

1) GMAT FE 655+
2) Insead MBA 😁

A candidate like you deserves to up the aim to Insead from ISB 😁

Cheers mate, although the entrepreneurial venture was over 7 years ago, and didn’t end well. Hoping that won’t hamper the applications. Fingers crossed.
