There was an useful information shared in ISB’05 yahoo groups. Thanks Rohit Sharma.

The above link summarizes all statistics about ISB. The following piece of information caught my attention.
Program Admission Statistics
Number of students applying: 2500
Number called for interview: 600
Number selected: Shortlisting done of about 250 persons
Numbers finally admitted: 219 students
That’s a selectivity ratio of 10%! This year the application fees has been reduced to Rs.2000/= from Rs.5000/=. Also GRE scores and CAT scores are accepted as an alternative for GMAT. These factors would definitely increase the applicant pool. May be 6000+??? A selectivity ratio of 5%?? All these makes me worry more…Wait..”worry” is not the right word..”Anxious”, that’s the correct word.
An admit among such a competition would be a great feeling..7 more days to go!!
