Great situation to be in, congrats.
I guess it depends on where you want to be post-MBA and what you want to do.
Darden is an internationally renowned program with strengths in pretty much every dept you care - Finance/Marketing/GM. All the big consulting companies come there and the school has top-class faculty.
But if your interest really is to grow in India, I think ISB is a good choice, as it has established itself as a top-program in the country. Although FT ranks it now in the top 20, I have my own reservations on its international reputation at this point.
Mind sharing your profile, I am very interested to know why I didn't even manage to get an interview invite in Darden this year.
Darden - of course from every angle I can see ....

Thx for ur views.
My profile in brief - Male/IT/710(AWA 4.0):-x/4.5 yrs WE (with app 3 yrs international)
very frankly there was nothing stellar abt my profile, probably my essays/intw helped me sneak thru.
def darden....
Friends I am in the same boath. I received an admit from both Darden and ISB. Now I need to make a decision on which one to choose.
I have 6+ yrs of experience in IT industry, mostly management roles and now planning to shift to Strategy consulting or Corporate Finance( preffered)
I have preferences to settle in US but considering the slowing down US economic growth, would it be a good idea to invest 3 times money and one extra year for Darden as compared to ISB that is ranked #12 by economic times while Darden is ranked 31.
If I choose ISB, I would probably stay in General Management or operational roles in IT companies while I believe that Darden would open Corp Fin door for me.
