Adding to the pool of questions:

8. How much time on an average do you get free on weekends? (yes i did go through the whole life@IIMb thread.. but still want to know).

9. What was the average rate of loan last year?

10. What's with all the mugging? are we really needed to mug up so much as was obvious from the experiences??(worried about this the most)

Yeah people, do send in your nominations for whatever sports you play... cricket, volleyball, basketball etc... the teams would be formed by tonight itself and we may as well have a practice session this weekend!

Answering to Lancer....

8. Free time on weekends is directly proportional to your efficiency on weekdays and inversely to your group member's!

9. Loan rate last year was 9%. Correct me my batchies if am wrong, have never been good with remembering numbers...

10. Not much mugging required, if you already know it! Does that answer?

Top 20 students from each IIM and IIT are selected for interviews and then final selections are made!!!
Might not be too relevant for this thread but just for your information- one of the girls nominated at IIMB last year for the Aditya Vikram Birla Scholarship was Parul Bajaj too !!!!!
Congrats to all who have converted and All the Best to Waitlisted Junta...

5. For guest accomodation, you will have to contact the hostel office in advance
6. Yes. You have fix seats with name tags in class. The seats are allotted by the PGP office every trimester based on scholar numbers.
7. No swimming pool in campus
A bit curious. What are Scholar Numbers? Roll nos?

BTW, Any puys going to IIMB who are Non Engineers? Nothing against engineers - would love to meet all of you at B; but i just wanted to get an idea of the kind of profiles amongst Non engineers they have called......
Hey dude, don't worry about that right now...There will be some non engineers in your batch too though u will be a part of a " rare species" at IIMs.. For your info, there were 16 commerce students and 6 eco/art grads and 3 science grads in a batch of 249- in other words a whooping 224 engineers- these were the numbers most probably as far as i remember.. And since u are a CA, for your info- our batch has 5 CA PE-2's and 4 CA's and i am one of them

Hello to all my comrades for the next 2 years..

Name: Sanjana Pegu
Qualification: B. Sc Hons Physics
Institute: St. Stephen's College
Work ex: Zero

Wasn't sure about posting here yet coz i'm still getting nightmares that the list put up on the IIMb site is a hoax nd I haven't got through actually.. but couldn't resist the temptation.

Anyways,I hope there is a sizeable no. of non-engineers in this batch. One of my batchmates from economics has got through, so I guess that's two of us for now.

And did I smell a Blues fan here??
