@rohan80: Thanks a lot...I surely will..:).
I pray for all of you to get calls too...I think the adcoms this year are running late so I think 1-2 days of wait is still worthwhile.
@neelnath - your profile very impressive and it has what ISB wants - diversity! I am sure they are about to call you! All the best!
As far as I am concerned I need to bang my head. Here it goes 
. I hope ISB guys see this!
. I hope ISB guys see this! One more input...I dint get an SMS, so guys hook onto your mails...I dont know what urged me to check the email just once today after not having checked for over a day and I found it.
Oh yea, guys keep checking your emails!! I didn't get an sms as well and correctly got the mail the one day I failed to check it.
Interview was a bit tough. Moral of the story is- they just want to know what makes you tick.!
Anyone knows if the results are declared all together on the 15th or do they start pouring in before that?
Hi,
I am an 'Indian IT male, 28yrs' (synonymous with MBA Aspirant crowd). Below is my profile:
Target B School: ISB
GMAT Score: 730 (50,39) - yet to receive AWA score
Work Exp:
5 years, 3 months (by march 31st 2013, my exp includes an internship of 6 months)
Primarily involved in R&D; and product development roles. Co-Inventor of 3 patents in an cool upcoming technology, which primarily affects the quality of information discovery on the web. Currently (from the last 1 year) playing a pivotal role in the design and development of a new business product, which is nearing its release.
Academics:
Consistently among top 3 in class.
Bachelors (Computer Science) degree GPA: 3.25 (80%), Institute - Andhra University,
Master's Degree (Master of Computer Applications: 3.55 (89%), Institute - JNTU, Hyderabad, Received Gold Medal as University topper
Extracurriculars:
1. Knowledge Sharing: Since my high school days, I have always shared knowledge among my group of friends and can definitely say that I have contributed to the group's higher pass percentage and individual academic scores. During my post graduation, took personal care of a friend in his academics and lead an improvement of more than 30% in his academic scores and eventually guided him through placements. Also delivered some (4) professional talks in various engineering colleges, on the technologies I have worked on.
2. As my apartment (which has 25 residential flats) secretary, initiated and successfully complete numerous development activities which include - rain water harvesting, gardening, installation of water meters (to control of water usage) etc. It's been a tough job convincing my flat mates, who are from different educational and socio-economic backgrounds.
Why MBA?
Through the first 3.5 years of my career, did a lot of R&D; and built a number of prototypes, but none of them were productized. But we ended up with 3 very valuable patents. The biggest reason for our failures is the knowledge gap between our technology team and the product management team. We could not showcase our innovate technology in a way that could make sense to the business, while product management failed to understand what our technology is good for. Eventually, I was moved away from that technology and I am assigned to develop a new product which is in its initial stages. Its been more than an year, and I have been personally coming up with some use cases for our earlier technology efforts, but none of them could make a business sense for the upper management. So, I realized that I need to develop an product management perspective to capitalize on the innovation that we did. I have even plans of producing a start-up, may be 4 years down the line, but my current concentration is on a product management role.
Now, please help me understand, if my profile would fit in for ISB and what is that I can highlight. Also, let me know if my profile is any different from the average Indian-IT-Male-BSchool-Aspirant?
