Indeed! the Class of 2008 at ISB is an awsome mixture of varied fileds and personalities just like our Ugaadi Pachadi, a taste of sweet, sour and bitter, with its motley crowd of students with wide variety of work experience. About 58 per cent of the students are from the pharma, manufacturing industry, shipping, FMCG, healthcare, media, medicine, civil services, armed forces, education and research and advertising. While students with engineering degree constitute 59 per cent.

Class 2008 is very stimulating with a diverse group- journalists, architects, scientists, advertising executives, IAS officers, film producer, MTV Model Hunt winner, chartered accountants, people from armed forces, entrepreneurs, radio jockey, and a host of other professionals. The number of doctors and professionals from the media industry, in the class has gone up to ten each this year from the previous year's six.

The number of women students has increased from 20 per cent in the Class of 2007 to 25 per cent in the Class of 2008, making the ISB, the leading Indian B-school with the largest percentage of women in its class. In addition to the 23 international students,the class has 63 NRIs.
