Hi
tm2,
I neither have a Finance related profile nor sufficient knowledge that I can evaluate your profile for placements that will probably be done in the next 2 years.
I think you should probably consult someone from a similar background or someone in a similar job profile that you are looking forward to join or perhaps an ISB alumnus.
That being said, I hope you understand the fact underlined in the Quora thread that ISB doesnt provide you with sufficient depth in finance related subjects, which is one of the major reasons of lesser Finance related opportunities. But do not let me not discourage you, but B-Schools are most often than not are known for the MBA journey rather than the Destination.

GmatDaddy, thank you for your posts.
Here, we thank each other in the form of Kudos !!!It was spot on. Considering ISB's stats, not having the alumni pull can make it tough to climb up in IB (especially in beyond VP stage). There may be a glass ceiling restricted for IIM-A/B/C PGDMs
PS - Just want your 2 cents in my case. it's fine if you dont want to comment on this.
1) I'm on the younger side of the application pool, 2) have an M&A summer internship where I did well (I can get the MD to hire me for 3-4 months, till the PGPM start date), 3) can get a CFA level 1 in June 2019, and 4) learn financial modeling. This can improve my "chances" for M&A placement, right?
