Hi sunilsharma322,

Since you're asking about Admissions, you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile. There's a Forum full of them here:

OptimusPrepJanielle · Answer

ISB Hyderabad has an application process that is a bit different from the other schools because of the potential applicant pool. You can look for the consultants here: ask-admission-consultants-124/?fl=menu In addition to this, the best place to look for is the Calling all applicants page for the past years. There are some who do help: ISBMantra, MBADecoder and Gyanone. I have no preference for anyone. I have just listed all the names that appear on the website.

Hi there,

For my application, I worked with Arvind from Dream School Admit. As compared to other consultants, Arvind was able to figure out my career progression and identify my career path much more clearly. Arvind knows what exactly each school looks for in a candidate and thus, he makes sure that the right qualities/ achievements are highlighted in the right sections of the applications even if it means patiently iterating through multiple version of essays/CVs. During the course of the applications and shortlists, Arvind was kind enough to help me out even with schools I hadn’t signed up with him for. Having secured an admit from ISB (with a scholarship) and IIM Bangalore, I would definitely recommend working with Arvind.

Hope this helps!

I highly recommend Rahul from MBADream.in

I took GRE and was unsure if it would help me get an MBA. And he gave me the confidence to go with my GRE score. It took much longer and involved than I expected, so Rahul's help was invaluable. When work got hectic, Rahul kept me on track with my applications. I contacted Rahul in February 2021 about Fall 2022 R1 admissions. He was the only consultant who agreed to start work right away, even when I was overwhelmed with work and procrastinating. Rahul has extensive knowledge of the schools' requirements and is familiar with your profile and strengths. His best qualities are directness and encouragement. And Rahul works as hard as you do - despite his busy schedule, Rahul prioritized my work. I would recommend Rahul to anyone seeking help with an MBA application. My MBA application would not have gone as well without his help. Choosing Rahul and MBADream was without a doubt one of the best decisions I've ever made.

I'd love to connect with anyone who has questions about my review or the MBA admissions process.

Well, I remember speaking to Mr. Rahul for the very first time and I felt the energy to accomplish my formidable task. While choosing MBA Dream I took various factors into consideration like previous results, cost, clarity, and reliability. And I am all factors worked really well for me.

Well, initially it was an arduous task to shortlist schools in R1 and R2 along with my first essay, But Mr. Rahul’s clarity of thought and experience helped me to understand the whole process thoroughly.

Iceman2020 · Answer

When I started my MBA application journey, I was already late to the party. Most of my friends had either submitted their applications or were already working with an admission consultant. I started reaching out to all the admission consultants in the industry, only to realize that they were either supremely overpriced or not accommodating last minute entrants like me.

A friend of mine then recommended me to get in touch with Rahul bhai (as I call him) from "mbadream". Based on the initial call itself, I knew I found my mentor who will help me navigate this arduous and daunting journey. He was extremely calm and assured me that I will still be able to meet my deadlines. I felt as if I won half the battle that day itself.

Over the next 2 months, I worked on 7-8 different applications (with overlapping deadlines) but I always had Rahul and the exceptionally talented team at mbadreams to support me throughout the process. Whether it be the brainstorming sessions, or the essay, or the mock interviews, mbadream is a one stop shop for all the needs.

Rahul was ever approachable even during the toughest days of the pandemic and that reflects his commitment to the candidate's success story. One thing that makes Rahul stand out from the other admission consultants is that he is brutally honest. In hindsight, I attribute my success to those harsh yet honest feedback sessions which were instrumental in crafting a convincing story for the applications.

I genuinely wouldn't have made it to the University of Oxford (Saïd Business School) if it weren't for Rahul & mbadream. To sum it up, one can only imagine to get this kind of an industry expertise at this price anywhere else. Put your trust in mbadream and you'll definitely cross the finish line!

Akshay J · Answer

MBADream (Rahul and team).

Thanks a lot, Rahul and the MBA dream team. Without you getting offers from all the colleges I applied to would not have been possible.

I had a low GMAT score and coming from a male IT background, I knew my applications needed to stand out. After a few rounds of initial discussions and brainstorming, Rahul motivated and exposed me to the different career paths I can choose from. His guidance was instrumental in the way I choose my target colleges, did (and redid- through multiple iterations to get the story right) my essays. He helped me with identifying the weaknesses in my profile and essays and how I could leverage my strengths in the applications. His patience and professionalism along with maintaining a perfect senior/mentor/friend relationship with me helped me communicate my ideas better and translate those into my essays. On days nearer to the application deadline, I remember at times when at 1 AM in the night Rahul made himself available. Once shortlisted for the interview, I had multiple rounds of mock interviews wherein his inputs were crucial for my actual ones. I cannot thank Rahul and the MBA Dream team more for the fantastic support throughout my application and selection process. I could not have asked for better support throughout this process.

I was preparing for GMAT when I started searching for admission consultants online. I came across Arvind ( Dream School Admit ) and then had a discussion with him.

My target school was ISB. Arvind went through my CV , and said I had a good profile (as very few individuals applying would have such a diverse experience) but the gap could be a potential deal-breaker. But he said if I can manage to get an interview call , the chances of selection would be high. I decided to go ahead and started working on my ISB application with Arvind.
During the preparation Arvind was always very helpful. He would always respond promptly whenever I called or messaged. He was able to articulate his thoughts very well and beautifully portrayed my strengths in the essays and LOR. 
Arvind also clearly portrayed the need for an MBA for me in the essays (also during interview preparation) by connecting my past experiences with my future goals.Arvind's humility, clarity in thoughts and ability to link the candidate's profile with the expectations of the Adcoms is commendable.

Towards the end Arvind had become more of a friend than a consultant - with whom I could discuss my goals in general. I got the interview call from ISB. Arvind also helped with the interview preparation.Two months after the interview I got the final admit from ISB Hyderabad. I informed Arvind after the result and he was very happy.

I am thankful to Arvind for his constant support in this journey

He helped me craft my story, guided me on how to highlight certain key points and helped me give the overall profile a logical structure and flow. He was upfront about what would not work and along the way made me understand how to build a strong profile.

There are a number of things that stand out with Arvind. His response is quick and he spends an adequate amount of time with the candidate. He helped me immensely during my interview preparation also. He gave his honest feedback on my mock interviews and helped me structure my answers. I would highly recommend Arvind to anyone who wants to get into their dream business school

When asked about the best MBA consultants, my experience compels me to share a personal and impactful journey that I embarked on with Dream School Admit and my mentor, Arvind. As I sit to draft this testimonial, I find myself reflecting not just on the successful outcome—my admission to ISB—but also on the journey itself, one made remarkable by the mentorship and support of Arvind from Dream School Admit. From the outset, his approach was not just that of a guide, but of a visionary who saw potential in me that I had yet to realize. Arvind's ability to distill my scattered thoughts into essays that resonated with clarity and depth was nothing short of alchemy. Each session we spent dissecting my life’s story, he helped weave my experiences into a narrative that not only aligned with ISB’s ethos but also remained true to my voice. What set Arvind apart was his unwavering availability; he was the steady hand in the turbulent sea of the application process. In moments of doubt, his words were a rousing speech that inspired confidence. When fatigue set in, his encouragement was the spark that reignited my drive. His dedication was palpable in every meticulously edited essay, every mock interview, and in the countless messages of motivation. The breadth of his involvement spanned beyond the role of a consultant; he was a strategist, a confidant, and above all, a cherished mentor. The success I celebrate today is as much Arvind's as it is mine. The lessons I’ve learned under his tutelage extend beyond the realms of education; they are life lessons I will carry forward in my career and beyond. To those embarking on their MBA journey, Dream School Admit isn’t just a service; it’s an ally, and in Arvind, you will find not just an advisor but a champion for your dreams.

I would highly recommend Arvind from  Dream School Admit .

I remember speaking to a bunch of consultants initially after I got my GMAT scores. Given my profile (5+ years of experience), everyone showed interest in assisting me. But after one call with Arvind I knew I would go with him.

His first words upon reviewing my resume & GMAT scores were - ‘You are going to ISB next year’. He then proceeded to draft a compelling narrative and encouraged me to use it, regardless of my decision to engage him as my consultant. His unwavering confidence in both me and my profile was incredibly reassuring, helping me overcome any doubts I had.

Arvind delivered on every commitment made during our initial call and my experience with him has been absolutely fantastic. Throughout the entire process, he provided constant support and guidance, ensuring a swift turnaround time. His consistent availability for sessions enabled me to gain a comprehensive understanding about my profile and how to work on the applications. He also prepared me for my interviews and had great insights on the areas that I should improve.

I applied to only one school that too in their round 2 applications. I recently got an admit to the Indian School of Business, Hyderabad. I also received a merit based scholarship for the same. It wouldn’t have been possible without Arvind’s assistance.

I highly recommend Arvind to anyone seeking prompt responses and valuable feedback.

It was a really great experience working with Arvind and Dream School Admit. I got the reference of Dream School Admit from a colleague who used to work at my company. Little did I know that working with them was going to be such a transformational and life-changing experience.

They will take care of you from the day you make a discovery call, before you even get on board. Their entire process is very streamlined and their advice is on point. After multiple brainstorming sessions, essay editing, and mock interviews, I was able to secure multiple admits from B-schools in India and the USA with scholarships. I was really fortunate to have secured admission to Emory (50% scholarship), McCombs (50% scholarship), Simon (55% scholarship), and ISB.

In the end, I ended up choosing ISB because it made the most sense to me, considering my personal and professional goals.

Finally, I would like to say that Dream School Admit truly lives up to its name by helping you get into your dream B-school. For anyone aspiring to pursue an MS or an MBA, his insights are precise and golden! Just stay consistent and make sure you follow his advice because he is the best out there.
