Hi Parag030303, since you mention CR as your specific area of concern, thought I would mention that our Critical Reasoning book Critical Reasoning Nirvana is perhaps the only book that offers a score improvement guarantee.

After reading the book twice (yes! it's an academic book, and so must be read twice in all seriousness, to reinforce the concepts), you will start looking forward to solving CR questions!

If you want to sample a chapter before deciding to go ahead with our book, please DM me your mail-id (along with the chapter that you would like to sample) and we will be happy to send that chapter to you by mail.

p.s. The book is available on Amazon and Flipkart.

Hello everyone, after overwhelming 3 days since my last message, my time slots have now opened up again and I will continue doing more profile reviews for free.

For free review, WA here: +91 8826075608 (pls no spam and only serious profiles!)

PS: Candidates interested in the 1-week bootcamp to finalize essays and application in a week (July), please mention that explicitly so I can share the details along. Note: Only only few seats remain (selective-basis), so shortlists will be on rolling basis.

Cheers!

usercracked3

Quick update: Due to overwhelming response on this, I might be missing out on some of your messages. To streamline the process (and to ease Strategizen's load

), I am also doing free profile evaluations. But please note that I will only be able to do this over WA message and not over call (due to bandwidth constraints). Feel free to ping your profile in few lines and I will get back as soon as I can!

WA here: +91 8826075608 (pls no spam and only serious profiles!)

PS: Candidates interested in the bootcamp, please mention that explicitly so I can share the details along. Note: Only 7 (out of 12) seats remain, so shortlists will be on rolling basis.

Cheers!

Hey — I see some super serious candidates for ISB here.

I’m running a 7-day bootcamp to help finalize your ISB PGP Co’27 R1 application — tight focus on profile strategy and essays.

It’s invite-only, selective (resume-based) and wraps in early July so you can move on to GMAT/interviews. WA me on +918826075608 if you want the link and details — deadline to apply for bootcamp is June 25.

I am planning to take the GMAT soon. The GMAC website says that we get 48 hours once the score becomes available to send it to 5 schools for free.

Do I need to register in any way to a B school before I send my score? Can I just send the score without ever registering with ISB/any other B school?

You do not have to register with ISB, to send the score to ISB.

You can directly send your scores from GMAC website, to five schools of your choice (without registering individually with any of those schools).
