No don’t think so . R1 s are traditionally easier to crack and has a larger acceptance rate ( may be becuase the cream candidates mostly apply in R1). Also i dont think they have a fixed no in mind to take in . If you are good you get in !! That’s it . ISB historically is a college which places importance on the GMAT score . If you have a good GMAT score accompanied with a good profile (4+ work ex in agoid company ) then there is 80-90% chance u will get in even with an avergae interview ( as i mentioned in the earlier post , interviews have only 10-20% weightage ). With good gmat , academics , profile you will be placed in P1 ( priority 1 group ) before they call you for interviews. P1 and P2 s rarely get rejected .
So if you have already done the hard part . Dont worry too much about the interview . Be yourself and that’s good enough to get you in .
Many candidates are wiatlisted becuae ISB loses about 30% of initially accepted candidates to other b schools like Harvard , stanford , kellogs , LBS etc . So to fill up those spots they us the waitlisted candidates .

I was doing some research !! Almost everywhere it says interviews has only 10-20% weightage on the final admission decission . So if you have a stellar profile and good GMAT score , even with a below average interview you will get admission .

Yes that's true
It's a relative selection.
For example -
A B C are the categories of evaluation
A- 9/10
B- 8/10
C- 5/10
21 marks are for selection
Take my case
A- 6/10
B- 5/10
C- 9/10
C here represents the interview
A and B and work ex and academics
Now I walk out head high for having a feeling of rocking the interview but there's always more than that
Strong acads and work ex is what schools at
But having said this a terrible interview won't get you in despite having the best acads and work ex
Regards,
HK
