Is it wise to apply for IIM A in R2 and ISB in R2?

Because the timelines seems to be vastly different

ISB in R1 and IIM Ahmedabad in R2 would give you overlap to decide if you have both converts.

If your application to ISB isn’t ready, then you’ll need to go R2 anyway.

Right.. I was asking if I should apply to IIM A in R3 and ISB in R2

If there is an offer from IIMA do I have to pay non refundable fees within those two weeks?

Hello everyone, I am applying for PGPX in Round 2. The application asks for international work experience. Now, I have worked on assignments for international clients/stakeholders as off-shore. Can I mention this as an international experience? Or only the onsite experiences are considered for this?

Application portal says " Mention your academic details from Bachelor’s degree onwards"
Are we not required to fill higher secondary and secondary education details?

ISB is 2-20 but people having higher workex than average should have higher GMAT/GRE score.
Linerally extrapolate those numbers.
Might not be applicable to Veterans/Docs.

Bangalore is 5-12 but there was one candidate with 15+ in last batch. So it’s difficult but possible.

Based my guesstimate not an official communication from either program.

IIM A's extempore:

Some key points to keep in mind:
1) Take time to think before you start speaking
2) Give your opinion instead of stating just facts (this is not a GK Quiz)
3) Coherent and Concise is your mantra
4) Change your topic if you are clueless
5) You cannot know everything in the next few days, but do try to practice a few topics over the next few days
6) Expect a number of cross-questions and hence be ready to explain your points in details

Some topics that candidates have faced in the last few years:
1) Corruption cannot be fought with non violence
2) Facebook and WhatsApp should be banned to stop spreading fake news

Last few slots for Mock Interviews and extempore practice are available...

Regards,
Tridisha
