I applied for ISB for Round 2 and was interviewed on 6th February but unfortunately, I haven't heard back from Adcom yet. Many people have received offers over the last week which is making me very nervous. My interview went great in my opinion and my profile/scores also seem decent (please refer below).
Is there anything I can do about it? Would it be advisable to write to adcom to see if there is any problem with my application and if I can do anything to address that? Please advise, I am very nervous. As per the GMATClub decision tracker, 41 candidates have been made the offer for Round 2. This number was 54 last year. So ~80% Round 2 slots have already been filled. Below is my profile

Hey,
You have a great profile. I am also a graduate from a top engineering college in the country and a consultant with a top-tier management consulting firm, and I haven't heard back either. But I am hopeful, waiting until 10th April before making any conclusion. Have faith my friend!
DM if you would like to chat more.
