delhi calls should be out next week and im guessing that it should be out on monday (7days prior to interview dates) !!
The calls will be given out "3-7 days before the interview date". Hence, I would imagine the calls would be out on the 10th - that'll be 3 days in advance for interviews on 13th and 7 days in advance for interviews on 17th.
In any case, you are right on one factor - this should be the last weekend of silence...
Today i just checked my essays again in PDF file on ISB site and i found the last word missing from each essay.
When i pasted my essay during application, i guess it showed 300 words after automatically deleting the excess words. I thought it is showing 300 words for the full essay and didn't notice the last word missing. In my case only last word of all three essays gone. For me it's a lost world now.

Dont give up that easy. I think it is a common mistake, and one word should not be make/break the decision. The AdCom can probably guess the word to complete the sentence.
Don't get disappointed PAMSARTR. I had noticed about the word limits earlier. I don't think you chances will come down by omitting one word.Unless the adcom thinks you mught have wriiten more than 300 words.
I would suggest you write to adcom with your application number immediately

Hey bro,
Really seems no cos for worry. If your essay is concluding and the last sentence gives ample sense of closure - i don't think it should matter one bit. This arbitrary chopping of words was an issue i too had noticed - and am sure the ad com too is aware of the problem (ideally the form should not let you paste the text in if its beyond the word limit or inform you so), so don't see too much of a problem.
