I’m from Vizag with interview preference set to Hyderabad. Currently my status is SIP and am looking for a virtual partner or someone from vizag to give and take mock interviews. Feel free to drop a msg to catchup

Have you received an invite yet?

Is it possible to apply for PGP and PGPMAX at ISB for the same year? ( and is it desirable on not)

can we expect some more invites to role out today for bangalore?

Please don’t try this. A friend of mine was considering something similar, and after he submitted his Round 2 application this year, he received a call from ISB within a few days asking why he had two applications open on the portal. This happened even though he did not submit the PGPMAX application and submitted the PGP application using a different email address. I’m not sure whether he is still being considered for Round 2 this year. As until now he haven’t received interview call. From what I understand, ISB expects applicants to have very clear goals, and based on interview experiences and conversations with alumni, this could come across as a lack of clarity. While both PGP and PGPMAX are MBA programs, they require very different levels of commitment, and applying to both may signal uncertainty about one’s goals.
