I hope each of you who is reading this message would get an admit call from ISB on FEB 10'th.

I know, I know, the numbers are impossible.............. But for all those who donot get a positive call do hope to see each of you as my juniors. That should be quite possible.

Here is a small omen. Last night I had a dream in which a saint said, all those who THANK for this post would get an admit from ISB. :confused: I donot know if it would be true. Anyone who presses GROAN would be cursed for lifetime and would never get an admit from ISB:eyepop:. So choice is yours????????????

Once again, all the best to each of you and hope to see all of you in ISB Class 2010.

Cheers to all those drinking on the Feb 10'th............

ISB Rocks..................

Reddysaar... this is one of the cleverest posts in recent times! If it was possible to post thanks with the some kind of degree of thanking u would have got the full pitch on that I mean if you could choose from
A. "Thank u.. that was nice"
B. "Thank u.. that was great"
C. "Thank u maan! Tha was sommmmmme post!"
D. "Thank u from the very bottom of my quivering heart"
Then u would have heard a thundering "Computerji, D lock kiya jaaye"

My "thanks" has been duly recorded sir. If the omen works, u get a treat from me!

Those crossed fingers of mine have forgotten normal functioning now,

Hey All,

Yeah I agree, there are many anxious souls here and somehow one feels comfortable where he/she is around people in the same state. Anyway, I am R2 applicant and got interviewed on Dec 28 in Hyd. After that I had decided that I will not talk or think about the result to keep the result thing off my mind. I started reading posts on this forum recently and felt that indulging in this group will help me to beat the anxiety; so here I am.

Good Luck to all the ISB Class of 2010 aspirants!

-Amit

I second that. I think on d-day this thread would be overflowing with the entire spectrum of human emotions.....excitement, apprehension , anxiety , anti anxiety meds ( thanx radio for that lovely prescription) and talks of anti depressants...And the R2 junta wil give R1 junta a run for their money.

I am expecting some action this weekend considering the anticipation of an early result like last year.

I have also taken the day off since i wont be working anyways. ..so will be around the entire day....Haven't got much done this week and feel like a fraud at work. ( great smileys here)

Hey Smackdown,

were you able to manage the 2L upfront also as part of loan which has to be submitted in 15 days. I remember MRC posting that this amount is not available in form of loan.

your inputs are awaited..

Does anyone know what the record for maximum no. of posts in a thread is? Whatever it is, let's break it.

3. Customised placements at iima.

i agree to a grt extent..

IMHO
only minus point which i can think of isb is its batch size..compared to iims.. 560 is big number... but since its batch consist of ppl ranging from 2 yrs to 20 yrs.. so they place them starting from entry level positions to mid n senior level positions... while iims only look for mid n senior level placements!

6 hours to go for the weekend since the AdCom doesnt work on Sundays. Hoping for an early result.

I agree on the last day posts - we could easily give R1 applicants a run for their money.
