@xan Laptop config? ISB does allow Macs to be used on campus right?

@trailblazer123 said:

@xan Ok, so that's what you get ! I thought you'd come to know more about the school which helps you prepare for it, some stuff you need to study before coming, when to pay fees, what to bring and what not to, etc etc

Wow, that is pretty far away. I thought details will come in the admit package and I was planning to start approaching the banks in the 1st week of December itself.

@muvvalasumanth said:

Also, can seniors or anyone from the group enlighten me on how to apply for the student loan? Heard that some banks provide security-free education loans that covers full fees. Will be glad, if some one can provide some info.

Awesome man, you in fact are a lucky guy that you are from IT and got in ISB. There is a who had GMAT 720 with 9 years exp with 5 years onsite exp, and he did not get a call. I thought my essays were good along with 8 years IT, but things went the other way. In the name of diversity IT people have been treated as untouchables, even though it is IT people who make everyone's life easy, right (remember the days when everything was manual)? All the Best to you an may you be able to change the perception of MBA gurus for IT people, you have our flag now! Heartiest Congratulations!...V.

Soubhg,

While it is a must to work on the feedback given by ISB it is all the more important to work harder towards your goals. One of the key things i found out during my application process was that ISB doesn't really worry so much about your weaknesses. They test the depth of knowledge and the passion you have towards your goals. So my recommendation would to be continue work hard towards your goals/target industry/role or whatever it is that you consider your strengths. Do not fall into the trap of diversity factor. I see that a lot of folks do a number of unrelated things just to play the diversity card. Ultimately its your passion that will get you that coveted seat at ISB.

Cheers,
Rajath
