I am sure all of you are anxious, busy and tensed while preparing for ISB's MBA application. These MBA applications are a good way to analyse one's strengths and weaknesses. It is a tough yet interesting time for each one of you which one will cherish throughout your lifetime once you reach the destination.
I started my journey on this path 2 years back; in the first year I received 100% rejections from 6 business schools and this year I have received 5 admits including 2 from top 5 business schools, 2 Ivy-leagues with scholarships and 1 from ISB. I was interviewed by 8 business schools this year including Harvard, Stanford, INSEAD and ISB.

Hey Ersheet, I had a low GMAT earlier which I improved the 2nd time (still was below 700). Additionally, the biggest improvement was my choice of recommenders, quality of my applications and the elevator pitch which I created after doing my due diligence. The right approach to entire application helped me gain those admits.

Congrats on getting selected in your dream schools.
Which school will you select now out of all the admits you got? It would be great if you could share your interview experience with all the schools that interviewed you.
The good news is that with your GMAT score and work experience, you hold a good chance of getting through some fine MBA programs That said, your query does not provide us information specific to your career goals, as well as the geography you are looking to target. Therefore, we would like to take this opportunity to offer you a free profile evaluation. Should you be interested in the same, please feel free to reach out to us ☺
I am getting a lot of questions on my journey and personal evaluation. Happy to help most of you. Please reach out to me on personal email at apoorvaj2712[@]gmail[.]com.
Best, Apoorva
