Hi, I would say that from now if you target ISB R1, you can have a structured story to tell the admissions committee.

You come from a good school and have a good GPA and since you have IT background (Indian, IT, male) it is best to maximize your GMAT

710 and above on the safer side, good luck

There is no minimum GMAT score but you can aim to get above the average ISB GMAT score. You can also look at the GMAT scores of some admitted applicants from the decision tracker at the following link

I would suggest first get the GMAT done and then only Think about applying. GMAT is not that easy journey. Requires adequate prep.

Totally agree. GMAT surprises a lot more people in terms of the time it takes to get the target score :)

I am retaking the GMAT this time. Last time it took me a lot of time to prep still I was not happy with my prep. I wrote the GMAT. And GMAT is very true to itself. Did score low. SO unless Mocks are not going good there is no point in writing GMAT.
