Hi MAGNETIC , would be useful for me to know what business did you establish and what industry were you employed in to be able to guide you on how to best articulate your entrepreneurial experience for your target B School. While your academics are mediocre, your entrepreneurial initiatives can definitely give you a competitive edge at ISB. If you faced any hardships during formative years that had an impact on your academic performance, voice them out candidly in your narrative and demonstrate that you eventually left no stones unturned in bringing your career on track. I recently helped an applicant with mediocre academics and a significant career gap due to personal issues crack ISB in first attempt. I would recommend you target nothing short of 720+ on GMAT to strengthen your chances at ISB.

If you are looking for a professional coach who would help you to profoundly deep dive into experiences and learnings and create a stellar MBA application, do reach out to me.

Best wishes

Hi romasharma1998 , from the brief synopsis you shared, you could stand a decent chance at ISB with a 700+ GMAT Score. 23 years of age is on the lower end of the age spectrum, therefore, you must demonstrate maturity and conscientiousness through your narrative centered around your leadership skills, community work(if any) and diversity initiatives at work/outside work and year on year career progression at the FMCG and Pharma companies where you worked. A profound reasoning on why this is the right time for you to do ISB PGP and crystal clear short term goals will further strengthen your prospects.

If you are looking for professional guidance on how to create the most impactful B School application, do reach out to me.

Best wishes

Hello romasharma1998,

Hope this finds you well.

While you haven't shared details pertaining to your achievements at work, career progression, and extra-curricular engagements, you must target a score upwards of 710. Of course, this will not guarantee an interview call as a lot will depend on how you connect the dots in your story and what your goals are. However, this is a decent score to aim for.

All the best!

Hello MAGNETIC,

Hope this finds you well.

Keeping all factors, you must aim for a score upwards of 710 on the GMAT; needless to say, the higher the better.

Good luck!
