ISB Class of 2014 aspirants.

@navisangha Thanks πŸ˜ƒ

I am posting a consolidated debrief of ISB interviews.

@navisangha said: Many lucky puys are getting invite for the interview early on.I am posting a small doc for ISB interview preparation. It is called 128 ISB Interview Questions. This is a crisp list of 128 actual iv questions asked to Co 2013 R1 candidatesPS: @ankit1101 Working PDF has been uploaded
Much obliged dude. Co14 applicants, lets carry forward this PDF for possible help to next batches

One doubt: We can't fill ISB application form until we give GMAT?


PS: I am yet to fill app and yet to give GMAT ,but want to apply for April 2013 session.
@nannuabhi fix a date for the gmat (presuming that you are preparing/prepared) keeping in mind the nov 15 deadline.. keep aside a minimum of 3 weeks to put together a good application.. give the gmat your best - decide schools later..

its important that you pick a school based on what you need as opposed to modifying yourself for the school..

Does anyone have any idea how many candidates were called for the interview last year and how many were finally selected in R1??

@amit_k4 last time's spreadsheet should have it.. it should be there on the PG forum for last year's applicants..

One of my recommender has informed me today that his official e-mail is not working . His e-mail will be re-activated on Monday...How do I get ISB to forward the evaluation link to him again..will they entertain my request..anyone faced a similar situation??

Dude, his emails would be buffered as far as I know. Just send one test email to his official email address and see if that email bounces. As per my understanding and experience emails are buffered at email server till Inbox becomes full.

Anyone has sent an offline reco. My evaluator has sent reco by courier but its not yet uploaded.......its delivered to ISB mailer room three days ago
@ps25 hey .. I also had an offline recommender ... mine reached on 14th ... i have been told by the adcom that it will take time for the record to get updated online ... as long as it reached before 15th/20th ... no worries ..

Thanks man. Courier says it reached on 13 September but no acknowledgment from ISB. did you get any email confirming the "receipt" apart from tracking tool of courier company?

@ps25 neps .. no confirmation from them but mine also the same thing ... have got the blue dart receipt saying it was delivered... so of come tommorrow they say it has not reached .. I have the doc ... u keep the printout of the courier no. receipt ... can come handy .. usually what the courier does is it drops the mail to the security .. which sends it later to admissions .. I know this cause have visited ISB more than 15 times this year alone .. just 10 mins from my home ...

hey puys,

do we need to carry a resume or any other certificates for the interview? just read the interview questions compilation and came across the question "Walk me through your resume"

Only 31 puys have updated the spreadsheet..common puys fill in the spreadsheet for the benefit of current/future puys...

@Shoan thanks for the quick reply..Does it mean I cant fill ISB app without giving GMAT?
I am targeting ISB and SPJAIN with 4 yrs (completing on 24 Nov 2012) of work ex in IT.
@ nannuabhi :
You CAN start working on your ISB application in parallel. Rather you should. It really takes good time to complete all the various sections in application hence it is better to get started by the earliest. GMAT is just one section in application where you can update your score just after you give the exam. I will advise you to visit ISB Application Portal and view the application. You will surely understand how to go about it then.
