Getting into ISB

-






Hii Guys

I was very busy recently with my MBA applications and could not connect for a while.
I got admitted to ISB with a Merit Scholarship!

My learnings:
1. Perform good on the GMAT. Though many are admitted with a not so stellar score, but then you need to shine in other areas. This would be especially helpful incase you do not have a great CGPA. These guys need to be sure about your academic acumen via some proof or the other.
2. Essays are very important. You may have made different choices in life, or may have followed the normal course, but YOU should be clear as to why you did it. Then be very clear about showcasing your future goals - give it ample time so that you bring out your best.
3. Interviews are a process by which the school gets to know you and vice-versa. Don't think of it as an exam that you need to clear. Have an insightful and rational conversation with your interviewers. They are there to know you better, and it can only happen when you are your true self. Also prepare various facets of your work-experience so that you don't waste time thinking about those at that moment.

Most importantly:
Be in a relaxed state of mind in the entire process. Your mind will automatically know what's the best for you and take you there. Don't be bothered about the result the day you start drafting applications. Enjoy the process, it will bring immense learning. You may realise parts of yourself you did not know before.
And even if you don't make it, don't let that inner joy fade away. Without that, nothing great is possible!

Be conscious, not compulsive!
Happy Living!

Warmly,
Mohit Geat

What's right for me - 1 year or 2 year MBA?

After giving the GMAT, a lot of students are confused whether to go for a 1 year or a 2 year MBA program. It needs to be understood that this has to be a very personal decision depending upon one’s unique journey so far and his/her aspirations out of the program. The following considerations should be kept in mind while deciding upon the same: 1.      Years of work experience : somebody with higher range of work experience would have to forego a greater salary and would like to return to the job market quickly enough. Such people tend to go for a 1 year program more often. 2.      Career aspirations : For people desiring a drastic shift in the industry/function, a 2 year program offers greater opportunity to hone new skills and intern in the new industry of their choice while such choices would be very limited in a 1 year program. However, I have seen many people making drastic shifts in a 1 year program as well, but the number is much lesser and it depends on how ea

Scoring 750 is easy, if you have got it sorted out.

Hi All.  I recently scored 750 on the GMAT (Q51,V40,IR8,AWA6). I have personally experienced that getting a 700+ score on the GMAT can be very simple only if 4 things are appropriately taken care of.  GMAT has been unnecessarily complicated, and as with anything in the technological age, has seen much pomp and show. Marketing is taking precedence over matter and quality.  The 4 things that you should take care of are: 1. Strong basics and appropriate practice. 2. Giving a few mocks before the real exam. 3. Preparing an examination strategy  4. Working upon your nerves so that all that effort does not go waste. As you can see, 2 points are for the all the knowledge you acquire, and 2 points are for the strategy and execution. Well, that should also be the weightage you should give to these two parts.  Before we go on to discuss these 4 points, I would like to point out few factors that result in an unnecessary struggle and a low score. They are: 1. Most institute
