So we have finally come to the last week of calls release...i am not sure wat to expect now...

3562

@Carnivalof_rust calls calls calls... and $hit loads of those
3563

most ideal scenario for me over the next 24 hours... 1. united beats chelsea tonight; 2. my boss doesn't ask me for the report that i was supposed to submit on friday; 3. ISB sends me a sweet text message that says "come, interview with us".

3564
@HopeIsAGudThing : if you want Gods to laugh tell them ur plans.... i believe that by tuesday or thursday if we dont get calls we should started looking for our other options...
3565

i mean " start"..

3566
@HopeIsAGudThing : it is like ISB has got constipation wen it comes to giving out those : S**t loads of calls"... i mean no offence plzzz...:)..

I am not sure what is going on , I thought I had atleast a good chance to get an interview with this profile but guess I overestimated it.710 GMATGrad : 72.5% from Pune University4 years 8 month experience in Product Development and IT Consulting.1.5 years International experience in UK and USStrong recommendations and decent EC's. Now i am not sure whether it was my essays or my GMAT score which let me down. With calls for next weekend done, I kinda have lost hope. Time to focus on other schools.
I don't think your GMAT score is a problem. In any case I hope you do get an interview call.

Just for some general reasoning that can also help you with your other b-school essays:

1. did you show career progression in your essays/ resume section?
2. did you have clear and logical career goals?
3. Did your goals sound like they would not be achievable without the MBA? In other words, did they justify the MBA?
4. Did your essays reflect maturity in you?
