ISB Interview now done

My ISB interview got done yesterday (23 Oct. 2010). It was a pleasant one.
Details are as below.
My schedule was at 16:00. Was called along with 16:00, 16:40 candidates at about 15:55 and given to write 50-100 words on ‘ORANGE’. (It was the same topic for the whole lot).
I was called in at 16:30ish into a 3 member panel.
Was asked as to how I put people into different buckets. (Since I have many people reporting into me).
What is the organisational strategy you have worked on?
What would you look for in your successor?
Why MBA now?
If you happen to meet Mukesh Ambani seated next to you in a flight what would you sp[eak to him about yourself?
You will be studying in a class with a large majority in the 5 year experience category. What do you think about this?
Any questions?
Any –ves with ISB?
Thanks.
Lasted about 20 minutes.
