Hey Guys ,
Liked the idea of having a dedicated forum for a particular B-school .
Meanwhile i was chatting with one of my friends who is in ISB , i got to know that the Range of scores varied from 620 to 750 of the guys who have passed out this year . Also came to know that ISB possess more weight on Essays and Sop's .. . Shall share any further news , once i get to know .

Hi All,

I have taken a GMAT power Prep test just now. My percentile was an awful 62%tile.....I will never forget this Day in my life.....

The detailed scores are as follows:


-------------Scaled Score-------Percentile
--------------------------------------------------
Quantitative ---49---------------- 93
Verbal ---------20 ----------------18
Total ---------570---------------- 62

From the above results it is pretty obvious that my verbal skills have to be improved drastically.. My main weak point was Sentence Corr....(which I thought as my Strong point till now ) Have to work on this with a serious head...

Any valuable inputs from any body around.......

Thanks a lot in anticipation.......

Dear samrat

First things first .... dont feel down ...
Analyze hard .... Instead of practising too much ,focus on Fundamentals .
For SC , try absorbing Manhattan Gmat SC Book , and then try doing a set of SC . Master the rules first .
Ideally SC , is the most easiest of the 3 . and shud not consume more than 70 sec per ques .
But that speed coupled with 90% accuracy shall only come by Absorbing the Fundamental Verbal Rules in your blood .

I hope u find this useful .
