Hi, yes for the 2021 intake. I had some health issues to deal with last year when I was initially planning to apply. I find that I'm again behind the eight ball this year, but optimistic.

2. How much scope should I see for myself to make it into iim a or isb after having worked in a security agency for 6 yrs and a Navratna PSU for 2 years.
3. I have other few more questions which I l ask even I get answers to above questions.
