Admissions @ IWSB

I m thrilled by a series of new experiences at IWSB. Last sunday I was involved in the admission process for the second batch of PGP for IWSB and the whole experience was amazig and nostalgiac. It reminded me of all the admission processess that I went through at different colleges but IWSB stood out in all because of its unique process which does not involve the same noisey and chaotic group discussions and boring interviews which does not try to test the potential manager in you. Instead of GD we have the concept of group task where in the group is given a unique task which they have to complete working in a team and interviews try to find the kind of person you are and the hidden potential manager in you.
This time we had a very good response for the admissions and those appeared had a very good diverse profiles, some with work experience too. The camdidates were really good and they too had a very good over all experience. They had the opportunity of meeting the current students of IWSB and freely exchanged their views on IWSB. We too had the opportunity of sitting in the panel for interviews and it was a refreshing experience. Our interaction with the candidates prior to interviews made them feel relaxed when they saw us on the panel. Though we had to survive on just two pieces of sandwiches and a couple of cup of coffee for the whole day.
It was a good learning experience as whole as i got to know how and what kind of students should be selected by a B school.
