Resizing your photo for ISB app...

hey guys i see that many of us here are having problem in resizing your pic to the prescribed format for the application. well i dont know if this is the easiest way ( i found it to be quiet easy though) but if you havent already, try downloading a simple and free software called GIMP as suggested previously by one of our forum members and follow the instructions in the link here so that you can work with not only your pics but also any of your scans...

Chances of applicants like me will go up!

Let me use the awesome guy, Mr. Gronsieur Meen here

Hehe. Doesn't that contradict the original premise of "learning outside the classroom" from incredibly talented batchmates? Wouldn't you want a good bunch around you? :P

Dear All,

I'm Murali. I'm also in the process of applying for ISB 2010. I've some basic doubts on the application process:

1. What's the difference between cycle1 and cycle 2? Is there any advantage, other that time, on applying for cycle 2 rather than cycle 1?
2. Along with the application I've to send the GMAT score. Is it also a condition that ISB should receive the GMAT score from GMAC directly before the Application expiry date?
3. I'm an Indian Passport Holder but working/living in UAE for 11 years now. In general, I'm an NRI. But, does ISB consider me as an international applicant?

Thanks in advance.

In ISB apps,in extracurricular activity....can we include stuff like...workshops attended etc?

You will need to crop the image to the required ratio before you resize. Resize just reduces the scale,not the ratio of height and width.. Also. 375x440 is not a "hard" req. I was able to upload 380x450 just as well. So a little bit here and there will also do.

1. A general guidance is that if you are ready to apply in R1, you should not wait for R2. Do it in R1.
2. You can give GMAT till 15 Sep, choose ISB as one of the schools that will receive your scores. Mention your GMAT score in the online application and you should be ok. ISB needs to receive the scores from GMAT but they are flexible on the dates as long as you give the GMAT before 15 Sep.
3. I think that you would still be considered as an Indian applicant as you are an Indian passport holder.

Hi,

For the GMAT unofficial score report that I received on post, should I scan all 3 pages or just the first page that contains the QA, VA and AWA Scores. The 2nd page has FAQs and the 3rd has names of Institutes where we sent our scores when we gave GMAT. I think Page1 should be Ok but ISB mentioned somewhere that unless reverse is blank please scan and upload that page as well so the doubt.

Kindly advise. Thanks.

Girish Malik
