Once the applications were sent in, out came the interview schedules. I was fortunate to have received the chance to interview with all colleges that I applied to. What is interesting is that Mannheim Business School particularly requires candidates to prepare a 5 minute video presentation. This helps the B-school filter through the heaps of applications that they come across. I think this is a great way for candidates to highlight what is unique about them, to the B-school.

Manish Gupta MG provided me with good pointers to what to include in the video presentation.

There were two rounds of interviews, the first one with the Admissions Manager where I was questioned about reasons to choose Germany and specifically Mannheim Business School. I was also asked to speak a bit in German so that the interviewer could ascertain by command over the language. I had been learning the language for 2 months by then, this part went very smooth. I was then shortlisted for the second round of interviews. A gentleman from the Career cell interviewed me on my post MBA ambitions and goals. The latter half of the interview revolved around a case study that had been handed out about 3 days before the interview.

It was an interesting case about a popular apparel brand and its global operations. I heard back within a week with the great news that I had been accepted. My joy knew no bounds. Not only did I get into the top B-school, but I had once again defied the norm by being a non technical background profile who made it to a typical German B-School. My next article covers my life as an international student in Germany and how I got a job. I am applying to ISB and Manheim. Except MBA, I have completed all my studies from govt schools Extracurricular are not so encouraging. In larger pool of engineers, where do i stand for ISB?

Please Guide, how can i make cut to ISB, with not so encouraging profile. You have a decent work profile there Anil. I am afraid that for reasons mentioned here https: In any case, the idea should be to put in your best foot forward here on. The only thing at this stage that you can work on, apart from creating stellar essays, is GMAT — see if you can bump that up. This is a good reference for application timeline Jay: Would there be any such programme for a fresher? You can explore their MSc programs Dev: Your email address will not be published.

MBA admissions consultant review It had also become clear quite early on that I was going to be competing in a pool of applicants that came from a highly technical background read Engineering. Tips while applying to business schools in Germany Some learnings from the application process — specific to German B-schools: There is a lot of opportunity here in Germany by virtue of the scale of the German organisations and the economy.

This is a wise way of bypassing the extremely competitive US B-School applicant pool. Although an MBA is a new concept for the German job market with its preference for specialists , it is slowly catching up with mainstream courses. See which style fits you best. Chicago Booth - Class of I must admit when months ago I first read Rhyme's method, I thought it was just bullshit and I would never ever use it because I needed to read the passage thoroughly. Rhyme, thanks for enlightement!!! Dear Rhyme, I partially agree with your idea.

I would call it a wise note-taking which can help you 1 grasp the whole idea by reading most important sentences and 2 navigate to the exact location of the detail asked in detail questions. However, it doesn't guarantee that you'll never need to return to text to read a FULL paragraph. My opposite idea is rooted in your sentence "the main point of each paragraph lies in the 1st sentence", which I believe not to apply to all paragraphs. The concluding sentence may be at least as important as the topic sentence to which you are pointing.

To my mind, it's better to skim the rest of the sentence NOT just to hunt for numbers, specific names and so on but to get any info expected to help you answer the questions. There's no doubt that the 1st sentence and the last of course must be paid better attention compared to the middle sentences, but it doesn't mean that the middle sentences are inferior enough to be abridge to some discrete, isolated words. I believe investing on reading the passage is not sth to worry about since it can help you regain the lost time by not needing to flash back to the text when started to answer the questions.

I will later update when I have gone through it. To my mind, it's better to skim the rest of the paragraph NOT just to hunt for numbers, specific names and so on, but to get any info expected to help you answer the questions.

There's no doubt that the 1st sentence and the last of course must be paid better attention compared to the middle sentences, but it doesn't mean that the middle sentences are inferior enough to be abridged to some discrete, isolated key words. I believe investing on reading the passage patiently is not sth to worry about since it can help you regain the lost time by not needing to flash back to the text when started to answer the questions.

Moreover, in this case, when you have both a mental map and notes at hand, you can start the question with higher self-confidence compared to when you jump to the questions with just some notes and a shattered understanding of the text as you yourself have admitted in your post and my experience with ALGAE One point I wish to emphasize here is the importance of improving one skill in your reading, everybody!

I would call it your mind's ability to control your eyes speed, or EMASA Eye movement automatic speed adaptation , my own acronym. I DO believe that after reading enough of texts and getting familiar with question types, your eyes can be intelligently adjusting their own speed to reach a balance between time saving and good comprehension. That is, your reading style can be a combination of reading attentively and skimming at the same time, alternatively based on what you are reading at the moment.

But this is what I have come to understand about RC after several years of voraciously reading English literature and other stuff hold my BA in English literature. I don't consider a big difference between GMAT RC and other RCs expect the time constraint, which as I said can be alleviated by keeping in mind that spending on reading is compensated by a high ROI in answering the questions without referring to the text.

I will give this approach a shot and see if I can find some improvement in RC! It has become my GMAT verbal nemesis! I would kill myself if something so dense shows up in my Test. But you never know with those stupid GMAT dummy questions, if GMAT decides to tease me with such a monster - I guess I should just skip in that case as I should be sure that it is a dummy question and I definitely don't deserve that respect of such a hard RC.

I'm going to jump into this spirited thread for a second to see if I can help add some nuances to rhyme's point. He's right, in most ways: Do not read to memorize, do not read for serious retention, and do not get caught up in details, lists, lengthy justifications, scientific jargon, or any other complexities, on your passage read.

Read the passage with a light, open mind, catching the basic idea of the points and noting the organization e. While we try to avoid the word "skim," rhyme is right in that one should NEVER sit down to read the passage as if he or she were sitting in their living room with a pipe and a smoking jacket.

The questions will force test-takers to go back and pick at certain details with a fine-toothed comb, or to draw inferences from single sentences or thoughts. Its not high school or college, where you read the textbook and are then tested on it without being able to go back. So the first read is merely meant for orientation and to get a decent grasp on the subject matter, the author's intentions, and the basic structure.

At Knewton, we recommend an exercise that is so simple that most test-takers don't usually even think about it. Read it through ONCE, asking yourself as you go, "why is this being written?

What is it about? How is it organized? What are the major takeaways? Note points of view: What do they use to justify those beliefs? Thanks Rhyme for the detailed info on the approach. I think this is worth a try for everyone out there. I would also request others who have followed this approach to post a few passages explaining their thought process. I am sure many people are still worried about the use of this technique for answering more general questions. Rhyme has already explained one such question. But I would still want to have a few more samples explaining the method or approach to answer such questions.
