You can pretty easily find out by searching when the essays were released last year. Or I my really this amazingly smart to figure out that you can google for "ISB releases essays"

Hi, ,
ISB' Essay topics are always out by this time of the year. However we have learned from officials at ISB that essay questions would be released only in June this year.

Will update you if we hear more from them

Hi Aekagra

ISB Applications are now Open!

This year ISB has made quite a few changes to the application process. The biggest being elimination of the "optional" essay and the "reapplicant essay".

The essay topics are as below.

Essay 1: If we were to admit just one more candidate to the Postgraduate Programme (PGP) at the ISB, why should it be you? (500 words)

Essay 2: Describe your short and long term career plans. How does the PGP fit in with those? (300 words)

Essay 1 now has a word limit of 500 words compared to 400 words in previous years. Hence, it is now more important to write a solid first essay for that strong first impression!

Join us, a team of ISB alumni, for our take on how to write your ISB essays. The ISB Admissions Gyaan Session #3, a 1-hour YouTube session, will be held on Sunday, 25 June 2017 at 12 Noon. We will be focusing on how to answer the all-important 1st essay - "Why You"? Will also take up your questions about ISB in the Q&A.

Register for the session below and ask your questions too:
