ISB has allowed its applicants for the 2021 admissions to submit their GMAT scores by Oct 31 if they are applying in Round 1 whose deadline is in a week i.e., Sep 20, 2020; 11:59 PM.<\/p>\n

This decision resulted from the fact that many applicants were finding it difficult to take the GMAT due to uncertainties and limitations in the availability of the GMAT appointments due to the Covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

What’s the procedure to get the extension?<\/h2>\n

According to a mail accessed by us from the ISB admissions team, ISB has decided to extend the test score submission deadline to Oct 31, 2020. Such an extension would be granted by special approvals by the admission authorities on a case to case basis, to applicants who request for it. You should be able to substantiate your request with a screenshot of the confirmed test schedule date notification.<\/p>\n

Once you get the approval, you should<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Submit your application by Sep 20. Fill the score section of the application with a blanket score such as 800.<\/li>\n
  2. Once you take the GMAT, share your unofficial score report to pgp@isb.edu<\/a><\/li>\n
  3. In case you’re not able to submit your scores by Oct 31, your application will be transferred to Round 2.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    What’s the benefit of this extension?<\/h2>\n

    The result was that most candidates weren’t able to prepare well for the GMAT and took it in haste eventually resulting in low GMAT scores making their application less competitive.<\/p>\n
