ISB.... why are you making me wait so long...
Same here buddy - the wait is killing and practically no hope for me now (I'm a Delhi/Mohali) candidate. I never thought that I would not get an i/v call. Time for deep introspection - what the hell went wrong??

How many of the interviews had a panel strength of just 2, Mr. Kannan and an Aluminus?

The website ment ions  the result  date as 15 feb but the workex has been asked upto 31 march.if one gets selected does he need to submit work ex proof til that date?

Anyone invited to for an interview in Kolkata?

Sharing for those who might not have read the series, an alum of IIM Indore's one year full time MBA (EPGP) has been writing in the Business Standard on the one year mba in India.

While the focus of his series is the course as it exists at IIMs, I think it speaks volumes for all all such courses in India and can be helpful to all students looking to pursue a one year MBA in India.

Thought i would share with fellow puys.

below attached are links to the stories -

@sid28 Are you waiting for the final decision by 15 th, too or you are done?

i wish i could just fast forward time and know the result. even it is negative, just knowing would be the biggest relief.

@sid28 - Sent you a message with the details of my camera so as to not dilute the purpose of this thread :). Great connecting with you!

just a generic question, how did you guys tackle this one word essay? like take orange for example. are they just looking for a somewhat coherent construct about anything that comes to your head ? kind of like a formal brainstorming session? i have no idea how to go about this.. can someone recommend a few strategies?
