)Hey all ISB aspirants and those eagerly awaiting the results of R1
I am tempted to believe that like last year ISB will disclose R1 results atleast a week in advance
Also since the R1 interview shortlist was revealed earlier than promised I guess they will also advance the R1 results disclosure
Like someone rightly pointed out the site says latest by Dec15th and doesnt disclose earliest.
So in view of the above 3 , would it be too early to start a "ISB Class of 2009" Thread . Perhaps starting that thread would give me some good karma that will fetch me a seat 😉
What say u folks.
--Badri--
P.S : my productivity hasnt gone down like you folks, although i am as eager as you folks about the results and do surf PG a lot , productivity just cant go below zero you see 😃
Relax guys,
I see so many people just killing time here and visiting the forum over and over again....
I say these next 10 days party like you have never partied before.....
Drink like you have never drank before....
Dance like never before....
And ofcourse sleep to ur fulll
Thats what I am doing.....There no other way to distract but to do what you like most.....
Regards
So if the company denies to issue the exp. letter den in that case m loosing a year. even if work for one more year and get the required experience.
dey gonna ask me in interview what i did in that year..isnt it??
Chat gaye ! han, Chat gaye , Tere wait may ISB result. Yes, I am also R1 applicant and eagerly waiting for the result. Guys I am also not able to concentrate on my job. But imagine, during this phase if you have to workd hard due to some high profile visit of Regulator ( Quasi Judicial body) then what will be your state of mind? I am feeling really really bored! but it is the old saying that job ( naukari) is no-kari ( you can not say no). So, I am compelled to the hard work. Guys! can you suggest me how to deal with this situation?
can some current isb student confirm the statement that "last year the R1 results were declared a week in advance" . BFU , can u pls throw some light on the same . if the same was true for last year then we probably can expect the adcom to repeat the act this time too..

So cling to those coloured plans for a dream MBA while u can! May god be kind enough to materiase all of them!!
Amen.

The SMS makes my heart sink... not sure if it will say... your result is available on your email or say your result is...... I'll leave it at that...
I just can't wait anymore...

Guys ! while we wait for the ISB to declare results, we can start doing some interesting work ......................... (does sthing like interesting exist in this phase?) like comparing XLRI GMP and IIM L one year programe.
My view is that XLRI GMP is established programe with more than 15L average indian salary with fees of just 8 lakhs ( half of ISB).
On the other hand IIML programme will have teething problem.
Your views please.
Hi Sujeet, At the outset, your profile looks good.. looks like you have a consistently academic record and your job profile and extra-currs sound good too... and I would 'guess' that with a good app-pack you should stand a good chance of getting into ISB.
With regards to the 'Ideal GMAT score' , 'will I be called for interview' & 'will I get an admit' questions... I dont think anyone in this forum / elsewhere on PG can give an accurate answer... everyone can just throw in their 'guesstimate' at best (as I have done). If anyone of us had answers to these questions, we wouldnt be waiting for results, we would have deduced the outcome by now ;-)
Your application to ISB or for any other Bschool, is the sum total of your acads, experience, job-profile, essays, recos, GMAT score and the all important 'x' factor i.e.how your application pack shapes up as a whole and how it is perceived by the adcom.
Since the adcom will be evaluating your application not only on its own merits, but also against the background of all the other applicants in your round, factor in the number of applicants, their backgrounds and the quality of their apps... all in all, just too many variables in the equation. So just give GMAT your best shot, take your time in crafting your application and essays and submit away...
You should also go through the thread on the link below... It has Mr.Ranga Rao, Director of Admissions at ISB answering queries from prospective students...

Just some thoughts...
:-) If productivity were to be measured on a scale of 0 to 5.. and if you totally stop doing anything useful (like many of us) then your productivity is effectively nil..i.e. 0
Now, to while away your idle time, if you manage to take your colleagues out for extended lunch breaks, coffee breaks and other NVAs, their productivity would also drop by a couple of points each, say from 5 to 3.
My productivity : 0
My contribution to x's productivity : - 2
My contribution to y's productivity : -1
-----------------------------------------------------
My contribution to team productivity : - 3
-----------------------------------------------------
