Hi there,

Thanks for your post. Very generally I'd say you have about an average chance for the ISB early program, with one potential weakness being less work experience than average. Just keep in mind that there will be many applicants with similar profiles as well. Do what you can to emphasize leadership, and times you made an impact and contributed to results. Be prepared to address a theoretical question of 'why now'... as in, why get the MBA now vs waiting a few years. The NGO and mentoring experiences sound interesting to include and dig deeper into. And finally, your post-MBA goals are important to develop fully and make a compelling case as to why you need this degree, and why ISB is the place to get it. Good luck to you!
