Will a 760 score in the GMAT help me get into ISB Hyderabad?

Raktim Tarafdar

A GMAT score of 760 is considered very high and is in the top 1% of all aspirants. However, ISB Hyderabad is a highly selective institution, and your GMAT score alone is not enough to determine your eligibility to the institute. The institute has a reputation for accepting only the best and takes multiple factors into consideration while filtering the candidates. Some of these are work experience, academic profile, essays, interviews, and LORs also play a role in the admissions decision. 

A 760 GMAT score will certainly be a strong asset in your application and increase your chances of admission but not the sole criterion. 

Let me share my brother's experience that will make you understand better. He had the opportunity to attend ISB’s admission conference where he learned that the highest GMAT score was 760–780. He asked one of the faculty members the exact score that would guarantee a seat at ISB Hyderabad. He said that a score equal to their highest would guarantee it.

Surprisingly enough, my brother was able to score 760 and was called for an interview but failed to get admission. He went through the profiles of accepted candidates and realized the panelists preferred students with international experience.

So, it can be concluded that ISB never evaluates its candidates on the basis of just one parameter but a mix of them. You are expected to have a strong overall profile, a good academic record, relevant work experience, and a compelling story to tell in your essays and interviews.

MBA Preparation: What GMAT score can be considered good for applying to ISB Hyderabad with an average academic profile?

Aparna Das
Uday PawarStudied Finance at Indian School of Business (2004)

Generally speaking anything above 750 is a good score for admission to IBS Hyderabad. But even a high GMAT score does not guarantee admission to IBS Hyderabad because the shortlisting is profile-based. GMAT score is just a part of the entire selection process. You need to improvise your profile by working on other aspects also like 

  • essays
  • profile
  • academics
  • extracurricular activities

Academics: Your 12th class marks graduation grades, post-graduation, and certification scores along with the GMAT cutoff is considered in your academic profile.

Leadership: The leadership skills of the aspirants are tested on the basis of their prior achievements and roles.

Personal attributes: This comprises your personal qualities like hobbies, talents, and extracurricular skills. Aspirants from diverse work experiences, cultures, and educational backgrounds are welcomed at IBS Hyderabad.

So along with preparing well for GMAT, give importance to these parameters as well to increase your chances of admission.

What are my chances of getting into ISB, Hyderabad?

Pratham Kumar Gautam
Gaurav GuptaMBA Marketing, Indian School of Business (2018)

I have no information about your profile and cannot define your exact chances of getting into ISB Hyderabad. The selection process includes aspects like 

  • Work experience: ISB Hyderabad admission requires the candidates to have at least 2 years of work experience. In case you have no work experience, go for YLP admission and then join after 2 years.
  • GMAT score: You should have a competitive GMAT or GRE score to make it into ISB Hyderabad.
  • Extracurricular background: ISB Hyderabad focuses a lot on your extracurricular background and offers decent weightage to it.
  • Admission essays: Your admission essays should be convincing enough for the ISB Hyderabad admission team to save a seat for you
  • Interview: The last factor that determines your admission is the interview which evaluates your personal attributes.

Since you have no work experience, aim for a higher GMAT score and add extracurricular skills to your profile to increase your chances of admission.

I currently have a salary of 25L as a product manager. Is it worth it doing an MBA further at ISB, Hyderabad or in US universities? I want to do entrepreneurship, and a MBA for networking

Antra AnapindiFormer Co-founder & COO/Head of Admissions (2017–2019)

Since your main goal is to grow a stronger network, considering US universities is of no use. However, if you are okay with developing international networks US universities are a viable option. 

Comparing ISB Hyderabad with a US university is a lengthy discussion. Your choice should depend on whether you are planning to settle abroad or settle within India. If your ultimate goal is settling abroad, US universities should be your only option.

If we compare the pay structure, the average package offered at ISB Hyderabad is nearly the same as your current salary whereas US universities offer 7 times better salaries.

Both options require a lot of effort from the initial stage. To get into either, you need a spectacular profile and an impactful application strategy.

What is the current procedure for selection in ISB (Hyderabad or Mohali) in EEO (early entry option)?

Ankita Rakshit
Rakshit RanjanPGP from Indian School of Business (2021)

ISB Hyderabad's selection criteria lay great emphasis on Work Experience. The candidates are preferred and differentiated based on this aspect a lot here. To overcome this problem, ISB Hyderabad has come up with an Early Entry Option wherein candidates with little or no work experience can freely be evaluated on the basis of their academic performance, leadership potential, and personality attributes. Some highlights of the selection process of an Early Entry candidate are 

  • The early entry applicants will have to in turn showcase their skills and capability by putting forward their goals, their prior achievements, and experiences, and why they are pursuing an MBA. An early-entry applicant has no work experience so his reason for MBA should be backed by strong goals.
  • Because your academic performance will be the major criterion of evaluating your profile, each and every aspect of the same will be checked thoroughly. Any flaws can pose a problem to your admission.
  • For an Early Entry applicant, his interview round is the most crucial as his personal attributes need to be evaluated which can be done through the interview only.

The best thing an Early Entry applicant can do to increase his/her chances of admission is to get involved in extracurricular activities or get additional certificates and prepare best for the interview

I have got a CGPA of 6.5 in my first semester of BTech in IIIT-Hyderabad. Can I improve it till 8.5 for getting an admission offer in a prestigious management institute in IIMs or ISB?

People usually have two opinions regarding MBA admissions. First, the admissions have little to do with numbers, second, CGPA and numbers are extremely crucial. My answer is here to support the second opinion and she’s light on the importance of CGPA.

Don’t decide on your next degree hastily before even completing the first one. You may want to explore more interests before deciding what you want to finally choose. Most people in IIT commit the grave mistake of not focusing on their Academics because they think that the ECE or IT sector is not their cup of tea. They forget that they are among the best computer science minds right now and do not make the best use of this opportunity. Identifying the opportunities offered by the institute is a crucial step before deciding on your future career. Even if after enough reflection you realize that the IT sector is not for you, you may explore other options.

Recently many alumni of IIIT Hyderabad have joined as graduates of IIMs after gaining work experience. But almost every alumnus I have looked up had an excellent CGPA, nothing less than 8.5.

So CGPA is not the only factor but is one of the most important factors during admissions at IIMs. One can get into an IIM even with an average CGPA but having a good CGPA will increase the plethora of opportunities definitely.
