Re: ISB 2009 Aspirants - 03-05-2008, 07:18 AM

Hello everyone,

I'm also aspiring for ISB 2009, along with XL GMP and IIMA PGMX.

My profile:
- B.Tech, >75% in 10th, 12th and B.Tech.
- 10 yrs in IT (top 3 in India), 5yrs of International Exp (USA)
- Current role: Program and Account Mgmt.
- PMI certified (PMP)
- Awards for Proj Mgmt, MVP
- GMAT: 690/ AWA 4

Is 690 good enough? Also, I'm worried about my AWA.

If required, I'm open to retake GMAT. Don't want my score to be a disadvantage!

Please suggest.

Regards.

Hi all,
Well jus a few question to get me outta the dilemma to all the expaerts out there:
1)Apart from ISB,SP jain, IIMs, TAPMI,GLIM do wehave other prominent indian b-schools which accept GMAT for their 1 yr MBA ?
2)Say I chose college X and the application date for which would commence on 1st june, when do u think is the right time for me to give the test so that my scores reach on time.. In other words would I have score generated instantly after I give the test n would be dispatched for processing to the respective b-schools [excuse my ignorance!! ??:]?
3)I am currenly working for a top pharma MNC as an engg mgr for the last 2.5 yrs and I can set aside max 2 hrs everyday for my preps!! do u think 3 months @ 2 hrs/day is sufficient. ofcourse, did give CAT 2007 which bombed big time as I couldnt squeeze ou time :icon_cry:
4)How are the job propsects for 1 yr MBA/ Ex-MBA as compared to the 2 yr MBA?
[I know I should've done a lil research myself wit the previous posts, but i couldnt get tthe answers to my query with whatever lil search I did :neutral:]

5)Is it necessary to regist myself in MBA.com before i give gmat?

So muh for now, all the very best for all th 2008 GMAT takers out here!!

The first part of the story is I started working when I was in B.com IInd year and that is a full time experience as well my graudation is a full time.

Will ISB consider the Experience and the graduation ? Please Help
Witty,
ISB does not say that your bachelor's degree has to be full time but your work exp HAS to be full time. If you have a full time under grad and a full time work exp, you need not worry.

Witty,

I heard it different from Mr.Ranga Rao's thread. According to him, your experience after your bachelors is considered. Please look into the following thread for your reference...

Re: ISB 2009 Aspirants - 04-05-2008, 08:54 AM

Hi Everyone,

I plan to appear for my GMAT in August'08 ; what would be the right time to apply for ISB ?
My brief profile :

Qualifications: B.E. (Computer Engg) - 69.44% (First Class with Distinction)
Work Experience: 3 Yrs ; IT Industry

Would I be eligible for being considered @ ISB ? I know the score is yet to come and am preparing with all gusto .... just needed to know what's it gonna be like ; 'Coz so far I've been in a reckless and more often than not vain pursuit of the CAT (last %tile = 97.5) ..... Hence my doubt!

Please do pour in with your suggestions and advice.

Cheers!!

Hi Friends,
Though am a bit late but I am also an ISB aspirant for 2009 session. Planning to write GMAT by July End...

Profile:
Class X - 85%(CBSE)
Class XII - 87.4%(CBSE)
B.E(Electronics and Telecomm) - 74.9% (Amravati University)

Work Ex: Till date 53 Months in IT (TCS)
International Experience : 8 Months

Co Curriculars:

Till School Level - Debates,Elocutions,Quizzes,sports etc
College Level : None (Perhaps the worst part of my profile)
After College: Worked for a NGO for 3 months
Currently a part of a NGO initiated by 3 of our friends

Please can anyone of you advise what are the selection chances normally in R1 and R2? How important is AWA score?

Thanks
Souvick


Thanks and Regards
Souvick
