Hi all,
I have received an admit from IIM Ahmedabad Dubai Campus and wanted to connect with alumni to understand more.
My profile:
I have 4 years of experience in the financial industry, with about 3 years in front and investing. I am currently working at a small venture capital firm.
My GMAT score is on the lower end of the spectrum. My score is 595 in the focused edition.
I am confused as to whether I should accept the admission or should I try giving the gmat again to try for ISB. I had applied previously and I did not clear the interview round (making me a re-applicant if I apply again).
There is very less information regarding placements online so if anyone can provide some more clarity on that it would be very helpful.
Thank you

Hi tgc123 The reason you dont find much information is because only about 35 students comprising the first batch have been through the program. You may look up their names on the IIM A website and reach out through professional platforms, or directly reach out to people through search.
I did come across a concerning article here that you may want to take a look at. Not sure what the update is currently but all the more reason you directly reach out to the graduating alims- IIM-A temporarily shuts Dubai campus; hybrid classes to begin | Ahmedabad News - The Indian Express
Feel free to reach out should you want to deep dive into the reasons for the ISB ding/ profile evaluation.
Best wishes

its a new B school , not much info is available on internet.. also considering the current geo political situation its very uncertain to predict what will the future be of the region in specific.... no harm in re taking gmat and applying to other schools...
