Hello,
Last year i got rejected in round 2 of ISB.
My score was 710. I will apply this year again
But i am confused if i should write gmat again to improve my chances.

My profile is
Graduation : IIT BHU (7.2/10)
Experience till now 3 year 10 months
work area : Manager, production plant(3 years )
Senior Manager, Total Quality Management( 10 months)


Alok,

IIT BHU is a good brand, Managerial experience in a production plant is a diverse work experience and 710 is not bad at all. If you got a straight ding in R2 without an interview call then most probably you were not able to articulate your experience, achievements and goals well in essays.

Feel free to share your last year ISB app pdf with us ( email to : info@apphelp.co.in) and we will try to figure out what went wrong with you application last year.

Hello,
Last year i got rejected in round 2 of ISB.
Did you make it to the interview? What was the feedback ISB shared with you?

The feedback will give you more specific direction on how you should approach this year. However, I am pretty sure that with a score of 710, ISB would not give a feedback about your score being low. So, if you believe that given the time that you now have, you are not strengthening your profile considerably, then a very high GMAT score (740+) can definitely do you the favor.
