Hi thinkISB

My question is a bit diffferent for here on the forum. I have a full on Scientific background ie
1) Finished my MTech in Biotech this year(2010)
2) Work for a CSIR funded project (Open Source DRug Discovery)
3) Invited Speaker at 2 internation Scientific collaboration meets
4) Event Organiser for Scientific meet in Delhi
5) Work ex of 1 year
And all this is as a newbie to the research field. My questions are

1)How much does ISB give in terms of consideration to someone from a background like mine (also i've had good scores throughout, will take the GMAT early next year)
2) Am looking specifically at the pharma industry and being a project manager or something on the same lines.
3) As a fresher what are my chances.
4) What scores should I be looking at (considering there's a relaxation for people with good work ex's)

Hi ThinkISB,

I am planning on taking GMAT.

Can you please let me know how much GMAT(Approx.) score should I get , to get into ISB ? and will my low b-tech percentage have any impact in my profile evaluation?

Hope to hear from you soon.

Many Thanks in advance.

I like your point that you have noticed, showing the entrepreneurial skills as hobbies. That's a weird mistake.

Hi....i want to know about the pros (and cons) of the 1 year course at ISB as compared to a regular 2 year MBA. I'm currently working in the IT sector (its been little more than 2.5 years now) and want to pursue an MBA in marketing. So it's going to be a career switch for me. Thats not too much experience for only a 1 year course i think. How would this affect my admission chances and my placement chances?
