Is it a good idea to join ISB MBA 1 year program?

Given my YOE is 10 - it puts me in a senior citizen category in the classroom.

Have you got admission or considering direction?

I think these institutions have things like Executive MBA (even the IIMs also), that you can pursue since you've significant yoe, where your classmates will also be of similar background/substantial experience. Age shouldn't really matter now, if you're willing to leap forth in your career direction. All the best!

Forget about being a senior citizen, the kind of people you meet in ISB will be very mature and understanding. Just look at the average package of the college and then factor that in to make a decision. Also I really appreciate how even after 10 years of experience you found the courage and enthusiasm to apply for MBA. Most of us get too comfortable with our lives and stop challenging ourselves.
