Hello team,
My primary focus is ISB PGP for this year, below are my profile details :-
10th - 10 CGPA
12th - 91%
Electrical Engineering from MS Ramaiah College, Bangalore :- 8.74 CGPA, graduated in 2020.
GMAT FE = 635
Worked for 1 year in L&T Constructions and I am currently working at Deloitte USI as a consultant for US healthcare clients, received multiple performance awards and consistent strong rating.
My co curricular is only in volunteering where I have been a teaching volunteer for Teach for India at a government school for around 50 hours.
I am going to obviously attempt the GMAT FE since it is still lower than the median, however wanted to know what my chances are if I am not able to improve my score.

I feel, asking in respective chat groups would get you quicker feedbacks as many consultants are active there.
You can try going to chat and type ISB for finding the latest chat for ISB

@rkleo98,
Thanks for laying out your profile details — your academic and professional base is solid, but ISB is a very score-sensitive school.
Here’s a breakdown:
If you can push the GMAT Focus closer to 665+ (ideally 685+), your chances go up considerably. Without that, you’re still eligible but in a high-risk zone where an admit is possible only if your story is outstanding and sharply differentiated.
Happy to share more if you’d like to explore how to frame your “why now” and leadership trajectory — CrackAdmission has worked with candidates in your exact range before.
Thanks for laying out your profile details — your academic and professional base is solid, but ISB is a very score-sensitive school.
Here’s a breakdown:
- Academics: Stellar 10th & 12th plus a strong engineering CGPA put you in a safe zone academically.
- Work Experience: 1 year at L&T + ~2 years at Deloitte USI in healthcare consulting is good exposure. The awards and strong ratings help, but total work ex at the time of joining (3 years) will still be on the lighter side compared to ISB’s average (~4.5–5 years). That’s fine if you bring clarity of goals and leadership potential.
- ECs: The Teach for India volunteering adds social impact, but depth is limited — you’ll want to show how it ties into your values or future goals rather than just listing it.
- GMAT Focus 635: This is the main bottleneck. For ISB, the middle 80% range for GMAT FE is roughly equivalent to 660–705+, so 635 will put you below average. You’d be fighting an uphill battle where your essays and recommendations would need to be exceptional.
If you can push the GMAT Focus closer to 665+ (ideally 685+), your chances go up considerably. Without that, you’re still eligible but in a high-risk zone where an admit is possible only if your story is outstanding and sharply differentiated.
