Hello,
I have not yet opted for any admission consultancy because they are so expensive.
I would really appreciate it if you guys suggest me what points the below essay should cover.

What more will you like ISB to know about your candidature?

Why do you have this dilemma? Whatever the deadline is on application portal is the correct one.

Hello everyone,

I intend to apply to ISB's YLP program this year. However, I'm worried if a gap year between my 12th grade and Engineering degree would lower my prospects of being selected. And what reason should I cite for the same? also, should I mention about it in the essay? Please help me out, really tensed :(

Where did you hear this?

As far as I know your application depends on 5 factors.

Hi,

I had googled about it and found a few websites, one of them being Quora, where people were suggesting the same. Do you have any knowledge about this?

And would you mind stating those 5 factors? I'd be grateful :)
