Hey guys, I am really annoyed and worried. My evaluation was submitted on the 11th. Have a screenshot sent by my ex-boss and also it showed as such on the system before I submitted. Yesterday I received an email saying they haven't received it and noone is responding to emails and phone calls. Really who has the time for your glitches man, you are taking 50,000 USD per student set up a decent IT infrastructure. Hope I have some better news on Monday

as was the case with the user, try calling them. Also, mail then with the details explaining them situation attach the screenshot of the application page.
I am sure that even ISB does not want such glitches, but they do happens at times, even with the IT giants.

I am sure that your query will be resolved at the earliest.

Yes, so my evaluator had submitted the evaluation on 14th September. Day before yesterday, I received a mail from ISB that they have not received the evaluation. To be on safe side, I asked my evaluator to send the evaluation again. When I called ISB today, they said that they can confirm that the evaluation has been received and that they will update the application status today to completion. I am not sure whether they received it the first time or the second but I am pleased that they were eager to help.

Quite a similar story to mine, they were very helpful and sent me an email as well replying to my query about the evaluation.

Hmmm!

There's no official notification regarding interview dates. If anyone has heard from the admissions office, pls update.

Well, the application portal says that interviews will be held between October 1 and November 5. Shortlisted candidates will be informed 5 days before their scheduled interview. So, for the prospective students who will be interviewed from October 1 will start receiving invites from September 26 and the invites will go on till October 31 (for candidates to be interviewed on November 5).

This is my understanding and i could be wrong.

Thanks

That's true. Last year the invites were sent starting Oct 31st(Oct 15th was the deadline). It could be the same this year too.

Hey where did you read about the interview dates? They gave out specific dates last year & majorly failed to deliver on them. This year, they've kept everything open ended. As far as I understand their admissions system, the interview dates will be 12-13, 19-20, 26-27 October for Delhi/Mumbai/Bangalore & Oct 1 to Nov 5 in Hyderabad.

Yes but this has been posted before they extended the gmat submission deadline. And now with no fresh updates from them apart from a mail which stated
"The interviews for candidates (submitting test scores between 16 September 2018 and 15 October 2018) will be held separately (not on regular Cycle-1 scheduled dates) and results will be announced before 31 December 2018".

If they mean Oct 1st to Nov 5th by scheduled dates, then the invites should start from 24th September. But I guess there's going to be a fresh update on the interview dates as no one received invite so far.

It has been clearly stated that candidate will be informed 5 days in advance from interview. So if interviews are to start from 1st Oct , invites will start from tomorrow I.e. 26th Sept.
