Calling all ISB PGP Applicants - (2021 Intake) Class of 2022

Hi Folks!
3 days to go for R1. How are things coming along?

Can someone tell me what is difference between GMAT appointment number and appointment ID. I am not able to find which is what in the appointment details?

Vinodhini1803, I think that GMAT ID is a unique number given to your profile on MBA.com, whereas Appointment Number is a unique number given to a particular GMAT test that you have booked.

Hi,
I have been waiting for bookings to open for the online retests, but can't locate an option for that on the GMAC website(even though it is announced that we can retake w.e.f. 23rd). Can anyone confirm if the bookings for retests have started yet or not?
I want to request the extension of the score reporting deadline, but not having the option to register yet is worrying me. Should I send this in an email to ISB as well, and hope that they would understand, or wait to see if we get the registrations open tomorrow and hope it's not too late to get a confirmation for an extension?
In any case, what score should I mention in the application, 800, or my previous test score?

siddharthkapoor, workout, StepVue, S4G, elPatron434,
and others, any thoughts on this?

Hi AdityaWahi,
Yes you should send an email to ISB right away and if possible try to get in touch with them. I wouldn't want to leave anything to chance. Remember, you may only enter 800 in the application if you have an approval from the school. In any other event you will have to enter a valid test score. With regards to the online GMAT, unfortunately, I dont have a lot of idea on that. workout / bb Can you please help with the GMAT query?

Hi, Thank you for such a swift reply. I will try to get in touch with ISB over call and let you guys know what do they recommend for this. Thanks again!

Thank You

I am not able to add professional details in the education. It saves the data but doesnt show on the main page. Is anyone else facing this issue

Hi,
I worked as a freelancer for startup for a period of 4 months.
I don't know what to fill in the HR / reporting manager area in the ISB application. I am not in much contact with them anymore.
Any guidance?

Hi, You can book appointments for a retake only from September 23rd. But, ISB requires you to submit your appointment details before September 20th. I emailed them last week on this issue. I received a reply that they don't give any deviations. I am afraid you may have to apply in round 2.

Hi.
Where should we mention job promotions in the application?

Should it be part of achievement bullet points OR should a new employment section be created?

I have the same doubt. Can anybody answer this ? Or should we only fill latest function and leave the past ones?

I must say the application form ISB currently uses has to be one of the most tedious forms out there for MBA applications.

Hi folks,

Do you think the ad com would start assessing our application once our scores reach them--the unofficial scores?
I would be sharing my unofficial GRE score this week, while the official reports would reach them in 10-14 days time.

What do you all think?

Thanks & good luck!

Yes. Usually unofficial score is enough to start the evaluation.

Thanks.

When should we expect to start getting interview calls, if shortlisted?
