GRE -327. Don't lose hope, you have superb extra currics and unique experiences. ISB wouldn't want to lose you just because of your scores.

Responding to everyone' questions on my interview:
1. No essays or case studies were taken before the interview
2. I have no idea about people's GRE scores...nobody would really ask scores in the waiting room.
3. There were roughly 60 people being interviewed that day in Mumbai as per what I saw
4. I am an eco graduate currently working since 2 months, so most of the questions were about my current job. They also asked generic questions like why mba, why isb, questioned me on the points written on my resume tetc. All in all nothing was unexpected.

The people who got invited for the interviews, can you tell us if you received a phone call , an email or both stating that you had been shortlisted for round 3? Plus, does the application portal get updated after one has received an invite?

Here's my take about the process. I gave my interview on 5th October and there were 28 interviews scheduled for the day.

Seeing the number being 60-100 per city and 28 in Hyderabad till now followed by another 60-100 in Hyderabad next week, I presume number of interviews to be around the 300-400 mark.

Hyderabad batch in which I gave my interview had people from other cities like Delhi, Bangalore who weren't able to give it in the 28th September week due to lack of slot availability or date change issue.

Also people who have given their interviews in Delhi/Bangalore/Mumbai, did your batch also have more final year applicants than pre final year?

If anyone has the exact numbers for the interviews kindly share them!

I think interviews are supposed to go on till 25th October.
If you download your application on the ISB website, it's written on one of the last few pages.
So, hold that thought. :D
